'A truly excellent and enormously useful volume which provides a remarkably coherent and powerful synthesis of an enormous body of literature. Political Analysis does more than simply summarize previous work in comparative politics and international relations, it genuinely moves the debate forward. Whether or not one accepts Professor Hay's call for a constructivist institutionalism (and he offers many good reasons why we should) this is a book that all students of politics must take seriously.' - Sven Steinmo, University of Colorado, Boulder
