Occupying Political Science is a collection of critical essays by
New York based scholars, researchers, and activists, which takes an
unconventional look at the Occupy Wall Street movement through
concepts found in the field of political science. Both normative
and descriptive in its approach, Occupying Political Science seeks
to understand not only the origins, logic, and prospects of the OWS
movement, but also its effect on political institutions, activism,
and the very way we analyze power. It does so by asking questions
such as: How does OWS make us rethink the discipline of political
science, and how might the political science discipline offer ways
to understand and illuminate aspects of OWS? How does social
location influence OWS, our efforts to understand it, and the
social science that we do? Through addressing topics including
social movements and non-violent resistance, surveillance and means
of social control, electoral arrangements, new social media and
technology, and global connections, the authors offer a unique
approach that takes seriously the implications of their physical,
social and disciplinary location, in New York, both in relation to
Occupy Wall Street, and in their role as scholars in political
science.
