Professor Alexiadou is among the bellwethers for a group of young scholars that are beginning to open that box. Professor Rob J. Franzese, University of Michigan Professor Alexiadous book provides a comprehensive and state-of-the-art account of how the background and preferences of policymakers affect social and labor policy. This book is the first to cleanly identify the connections between intra-party politics, inter-party politics, and social policy outcomes. It is truly a major contribution and will be much cited.
