  • A Darkling Plain: Stories of Conflict and Humanity during War

    Open AccessKristen Renwick Monroe, Kristen Monroe et al.BOOKDarkling Plain2014

    How do people maintain their humanity during wars? Despite its importance, this question receives scant scholarly attention, perhaps because war is overwhelming. The generally accepted belief is that wars bring out the worst in us, pitting one against another. 'War is hell', William Tecumseh Sherman famously noted, and even 'just' wars are massively destructive and inhumane. Since ethics is concerned with discovering what takes us to a morally su…

  • Ps: Political Science and Politics Reviewers, 2011

    Open AccessRegina Abrami, Gary Ackerman et al.ARTICLEPS Political Science & Politics2012Cited by: 1References: 3

    In 2011, PS: Political Science and Politics published articles covering a vast range of topics. The journal's commitment to publishing articles on pedagogy and the profession, as well as exemplary topical scholarship on a spectrum of issues, call for an equally broad stable of reviewers. PS cannot publish such diverse work without the outstanding work (and openmindedness) of our peer reviewers. The peer-review process relies on the professionalis…

  • Gender Equality in Academia: Bad News from the Trenches, and Some Possible Solutions

    Open AccessKristen Renwick Monroe, Kristen Monroe et al.ARTICLEPerspectives on Politics2008Cited by: 93References: 5

    Is there gender discrimination in academia? Analysis of interviews with 80 female faculty at a large Research One university—the most comprehensive qualitative data set generated to date—suggests both individual and institutional discrimination persists. Overt discrimination has largely given way to less obvious but still deeply entrenched inequities. Despite apparent increases in women in positions of authority, discrimination continues to manif…

  • Apsa Task Force on Graduate Education: 2004 Report to the Council

    Open AccessCristina Beltrán, Cathy J Cohen et al.ARTICLEPS Political Science & Politics2005References: 1

    In spring 2002, APSA President-Elect Theda Skocpol appointed this Task Force on Graduate Education, representing a variety of institutions, political science subfields, scholarly backgrounds, and methodological viewpoints. She asked its members to report on ways to strengthen graduate education in political science. The Task Force quickly concluded that no single structure of graduate training could be appropriate for the wide range of institutio…

  • How Identity and Perspective Constrain Moral Choice

    Open AccessKristen Renwick Monroe, Kristen MonroeARTICLEInternational Political Science…2003Cited by: 8References: 10

    What drives moral action? A narrative analysis of rescuers of Jews during World War II suggests it is not reason or religion (the explanations most frequently offered by scholars), but rather identity and a particular view of self in relation to others. Findings suggest the tremendous power of identity to constrain choice, reveal the complexity of the moral life, underscore the importance of identity for moral motivation, and fill in critical gap…

  • The Nature of Contemporary Political Science: A Roundtable Discussion

    Open AccessKristen Renwick Monroe, Kristen Monroe et al.ARTICLEPS Political Science & Politics1990Cited by: 1References: 1

    What is the nature of contemporary political science? What shared concerns bind us together as a discipline, providing a common definition and direction to our intellectual enterprise? These questions were on my mind as I organized the section on formal and normative political theory for the 1989 APSA meetings. Initially, I had wanted to sponsor a panel to address the nature of formal and normative theory. I knew I was a bit uncertain about the p…

  • The Economy and Political Support: The Canadian Case

    Kristen Renwick Monroe, Kristen Monroe et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Politics1986Cited by: 30References: 23

    How important are economic conditions in determining political support? Is voting a simple referendum on economic outcomes? Or must voters perceive critical party differences over economic policy before the economy has political impact? Although these questions have received considerable attention in the last decade, analysts have nonetheless overlooked the Canadian system, an ideal one in which to test propositions concerning the importance of p…
