Founded in 1963 by two prominent Austrians living in exile – the sociologist Paul F. Lazarsfeld and the economist Oskar Morgenstern – with the financial support from the Ford Foundation, the Austrian Federal Ministry of Education, and the City of Vienna, the Institute for Advanced Studies (IHS) is the first institution for postgraduate education and research in economics and the social sciences in Austria. The Political Science Series presents research done at the Department of Political Science and aims to share “work in progress” before formal publication. It includes papers by the Department’s teaching and research staff, visiting professors, graduate students, visiting fellows, and invited participants in seminars, workshops, and conferences. As usual, authors bear full responsibility for the content of their contributions.
Das Institut für Höhere Studien (IHS) wurde im Jahr 1963 von zwei prominenten Exilösterreichern – dem Soziologen Paul F. Lazarsfeld und dem Ökonomen Oskar Morgenstern – mit Hilfe der Ford- Stiftung, des Österreichischen Bundesministeriums für Unterricht und der Stadt Wien gegründet und ist somit die erste nachuniversitäre Lehr- und Forschungsstätte für die Sozial- und Wirtschafts- wissenschaften in Österreich. Die Reihe Politikwissenschaft bietet Einblick in die Forschungsarbeit der Abteilung für Politikwissenschaft und verfolgt das Ziel, abteilungsinterne Diskussionsbeiträge einer breiteren fachinternen Öffentlichkeit zugänglich zu machen. Die inhaltliche Verantwortung für die veröffentlichten Beiträge liegt bei den Autoren und Autorinnen. Gastbeiträge werden als solche gekennzeichnet.

1. Introduction
Political Science at the Institute for Advanced Studies (IHS)
(by Oliver Treib)
The Department of Political Science has been one of the core scientific units of the Institute for Advanced Studies since its founding in 1963. It is committed to advanced basic research in political science, embedded in the national and international scholarly communities, and it aims to provide post-graduate training at the highest international standards.
The members of the Department currently comprise the Head of Department, three assistant professors, two postdoctoral researchers, one project researcher, an administrative manager, three research assistants and nine doctoral students enrolled in our post-graduate programme. Furthermore, we continue our long tradition of collaborating intensively with the Austrian Political Science Association (ÖGPW). The Department thus hosts the ÖGPW’s secretariat and its current head, Patrick Scherhaufer.
The Department has recently adopted a new research programme. According to this new programme, research in the Department seeks to explore the logic of multi-level politics in Europe. It starts from the observation that politics in contemporary Europe to an increasing extent takes place at the intersection of domestic and supranational levels of governance.
The nation state is still the most important locus of decision-making in core areas of modern statehood and the struggle for domestic government positions remains at the heart of political contestation. At the same time, domestic politics increasingly interacts with political processes at the supranational level as more and more policy decisions are taken in the framework of the European Union. Research in the Department seeks to analyse the logic of political contestation in this setting of increasingly interwoven levels of governance. For more details on current research pursued by members of the Department, please consult our website at http://www.ihs.ac.at/index.php3?id=1056.
In terms of funded research projects, the Department has acquired two major research grants within the past twelve months. Thematically, both of these funded projects address crucial aspects of our new research programme. The first project is entitled “International Governance and Domestic Politics: Do Parties Matter Beyond the Nation State?”. It is funded by the Austrian National Bank’s Jubilee Fund. Directed by myself, a team comprising a doctoral researcher and a research assistant seeks to establish whether party political changes of government have an impact on government positions in EU and international negotiations. The second project is funded by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF). Starting in spring 2010, a team consisting of the principal investigator Guido Tiemann, two doctoral
students and several research assistants will set out to analyse “Preference Formation and Electoral Behaviour in the European Political Space”.
The Department of Political Science continues to be active in key conferences and workshops worldwide. Over the past twelve months, members of the Department presented their work at conferences of the European Union Studies Association (Los Angeles), the International Studies Association (New York), the European Consortium for Political Research (Riga, Potsdam and Florence), and the University Association for Contemporary European Studies (Budapest and Angers).
The publication record of the Department over the past year includes eight peer-reviewed articles, six of which were published in journals referenced in the Social Science Citation Index, as well as a raft of book chapters, inter alia in volumes published by Oxford University Press and Palgrave Macmillan.
A further indicator of the international profile of the Department is that members of our faculty were invited to act as peer reviewers for top political science journals such as the American Political Science Review, the American Journal of Political Science, the Journal of Politics, European Union Politics, the European Journal of Political Research, the Journal of Common Market Studies, and the Journal of European Public Policy.
As in the previous years, the Department’s visiting professors have included internationally renowned scholars such as Beate Kohler-Koch (University of Mannheim and Bremen International Graduate School of the Social Sciences), Jan Beyers (University of Antwerpen), Simon Hix (London School of Economics), and Fabio Franchino (University of Milan). Among our forthcoming visiting professors are Ulrich Sedelmeier (London School of Economics), Jonas Tallberg (Stockholm University), Alberta Sbragia (University of Pittsburgh), as well as Liesbet Hoghe and Gary Marks (University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill).
The past year also saw the establishment of a new lecture series on “Themes in Comparative European Politics”, which we organise together with the Department of Methods in the Social Sciences at the University of Vienna and the Austrian Political Science Association’s section on “Comparative European Politics”. The lecture series is a forum for the discussion of current research presented either by members of the two organising Departments or by invited colleagues from abroad. During the spring of 2009, the external presentations were held by Hanna Bäck (University of Mannheim), Cristiano Vezzoni (University of Milan), and Sara Binzer Hobolt (University of Oxford). Among the forthcoming guests to present their research in the context of the lecture series are Dimiter Toshkov (Leiden University), Lawrence Ezrow (University of Essex), and Simon Hug (University of St.
Gallen).
