Book Description
The Oxford Handbook of American Elections and Political Behavior offers comprehensive coverage of the various theoretical approaches to the study of American elections and political behavior. The chapters are thoughtful and creative, providing broad overviews of intellectual developments and challenges, as well as incisive commentary on the accomplishments of, and challenges facing, scholars of American politics. Substantively, the Handbook includes chapters focusing on various approaches and issues in research design, political participation, vote choice, presidential and non-presidential elections, and issues, interests and elites as influences on individuals' political behaviour. Each of the chapters offers a working research bibliography, as well as retrospective evaluations of research and discussions of fruitful paths for future research.
The Oxford Handbooks of American Politics are a set of reference books offering authoritative and engaging critical overviews of the state of scholarship on American politics. Each volume focuses on a particular aspect of the field. The project is under the General Editorship of George C. Edwards III, and distinguished specialists in their respective fields edit each volume. The Handbooks aim not just to report on the discipline, but also to shape it as scholars critically assess the scholarship on a topic and propose directions in which it needs to move. The series is an indispensable reference for anyone working in American politics.
General Editor for The Oxford Handbooks of American Politics: George C. Edwards III


Reviews
Review from previous edition: "While learning about the state of research in political behavior, readers will find interesting nuggets of information on the development of political science in the US. Summing Up: Recommended." --CHOICE

"The Oxford Handbook of American Elections and Political Behavior is a must-own for anyone interested in mass political behavior ... topics range from different methodologies of research to systematic reviews of enduring puzzles in political behavior. The Handbook offers an excellent overview of where we have been as a field, and a roadmap for where future research should go." --Adam J. Berinsky, Associate Professor, Department of Political Science, Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

"The Oxford Handbooks of American Politics are a grandly ambitious undertaking. Success depends on coverage, scholarship, and editorial command. Measured by these standards, the Handbooks will be immensely valuable to the discipline. The right topics are analyzed by knowledgeable scholars and managed by experienced editors. A five-star project that will influence teaching and research for decades." --Professor Charles O. Jones, University of Wisconsin-Madison
