The celebration of the 50th anniversary of the ECPR is an
opportunity to reflect on the origins and development of European
political science and provide a critical assessment of the
achievements and challenges lying ahead. As disciplines go, 50
years is a short period of time. Yet, this half-century has been a
defining period for the development of political science in Europe:
disciplinary norms have emerged and become institutionalized in
training and research units and in professional organizations -
such as the ECPR; the scholarly community and production have
dramatically grown across the continent; the sophistication of the
analytical and methodological tools of the discipline has
significantly increased and the knowledge production and exchange
disseminated under the label "political science" is bigger than it
has ever been. Political Science in Europe aims to reflect on these
achievements and challenges. It is structured around 14 chapters
that reflect on the intellectual and professional development of
the discipline in Europe. Section I reviews what European political
science means in terms of objects, paradigms, data, and methods to
assess the "European touch" in producing political science. Section
II moves the focus to the producers of European political science
to discuss the professional challenges related to inclusiveness and
professionalization. Section III addresses what European political
science is for and how it responds to the external environment. The
14 chapters will be structured along a common line of inquiry: they
review what European political science was at the time of
inception, reflect on how and why it changed thereafter, and
discuss the current state of the discipline and the challenges
ahead.
