Dear Raul, Sherrie, Paul, and All,
I would like to join the list for comparative politics. While it may
be possible to encourage more discussion of comparative and domestic
issues in GEP, a separate list serve may still add more prominence to
the issues/ideas/topics relevant for public policy and comparative
studies.
Best regards,
Lada

> I would be very supportive of any efforts to raise the profile of
comparative work within GEP. I am not sure that a separate list is the
way to go, though I'm certainly open to it. I think it might be more
fruitful to encourage more discussion of comparative themes within the
GEP list (and other GEP fora), recognizing - as has long been
recognized within IR more broadly - that a clear account of
international politics requires a solid understanding of domestic
politics, and often vice-versa. I think the GEP journal has done a
good job of highlighting comparative work, though the connections to
theories and methods of comparative politics remain tenuous.

Comparative Environmental Politics, that is due to appear through MIT
Press next summer. The idea is to build bridges between GEP and
comparative politics, with an emphasis on identifying theoretical
frameworks that can illuminate applied environmental problems and
facilitate a cumulative research agenda. It is designed for classroom
use at the upper-division and graduate level. The Table of Contents is
below.

> Perhaps it's time to start another list for comparativists. I've
been thinking (admittedly fitfully) about this for several years.
Perhaps other comparativists on the GEP-ED list might identify
themselves and we could begin talking among ourselves. I would be
willing to explore what my college might do in terms of hosting a list
unless Raul or someone else is already experienced in setting up
listserves.

> An in-depth Google search of listservs in the field of political
science and public policy yielded pretty much zero results. Do we have
an equivalent to GEP-ED in the fields of comparative politics and in
public policy? Any guidance would be much appreciated.
