A chapter in Causal Inference and American Political Development, 2024, pp 1-8 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Within political science, a movement focused on increasing the credibility of causal inferences (CIs) has gained considerable traction in recent years. While CI has been incorporated extensively into most disciplinary subfields, it has not been applied often in the study of American political development (APD). This volume considers ways in which scholars of CI and APD can engage in mutually beneficial ways to produce better overall research. As the contributions to this volume demonstrate, clear scientific gains are to be had from greater CI-APD engagement.
