The UNC Charlotte Political Science and Public Administration Faculty have published a variety of books recently, including the following:

In October 2014, along with co-authors Jennifer Bowie and Donald Songer, John Szmer published The View from the Bench and Chambers: Examining Judicial Process and Decision Making on the U.S. Courts of Appeals in the University of Virginia Press series on Constitutionalism & Democracy.

Outsiders No More? Models of Immigrant Political Incorporation (Oxford University Press, 2013) is an edited volume assembled by Jacqueline Chattopadhyay, along with Jennifer Hochschild, Claudine Gay, and Michael Jones-Correa. The book brings together a range of social science scholars in an effort to advance and formalize the study of how immigrants get politically incorporated into their receiving countries, a question less studied than immigrants’ economic and social incorporation.
