We dedicate this book to the two professional associations which made our workshops and hence this book possible: the European Consortium for Political Research and the Southern Political Science Association. They are to be commended for providing meeting formats (workshop and conference-within-a-conference, respectively) which make for highly constructive scholarly exchanges.
