The Performance of Nations is a superb team effort, led by editors Kugler and Tammen, to answer an important but somewhat neglected question at the intersection of comparative and international politics: How do we assess the political performance of a state? This book introduces a standard measure that possesses cross-national relevance. Authored by established and rising stars, the chapters cover thoroughly the theoretical and policy-related aspects of how political performance is to be evaluated. Concepts such as extraction, reach, and allocation are applied effectively at national, subnational, and local levels to produce insights about how governments perform in diverse areas of policy. This book will be essential reading for political economists from all disciplinary backgrounds scholars and students alike.
