Summary/Abstract |
In recent years, there has been a vigorous effort within the disciplines of political science and strategic studies to encourage scholars to become what is termed ‘policy relevant.’ These initiatives have supported an array of activities, including fellowships in government, training in opinion writing and media engagement, and funds to produce research that is perceived to be useful to decision-makers.11 Many of these activities have been generously supported by the Carnegie Corporation of New York. For a partial listing of some of these impressive programs, see Lena Andrews, Rebecca Friedman Lissner, Julia Macdonald, Jacquelyn Schneider and Rachel Whitlark, 6 May 2015, ‘Getting Involved in Policy: An Overworked Grad Student’s Guide,’ War on the Rocks, 28 Oct. 2016,
