18 Pol. Theory 3 (1990)

handle is hein.journals/ptxa18 and id is 1 raw text is: FROM THE EDITOR A LL READERS OF Political Theory owe a great debt to William Connolly, who has served as Editor for the past six years. Indeed, as the files streamed across the continent last summer and fall, I found myself not a little apprehensive at picking up the burden that he carried so well and with such apparent ease. I only hope that I can be a reasonable successor to the strength, coherence, and intelligence he brought to the journal. All such transitions are multiple. After 10 years of consistently interesting reviews, Richard Flathman steps down as Book Review Editor. His will be a hard act to follow and Political Theory is fortunate that Nancy Rosenblum has agreed to take over. I look forward to working with her. In addition, I am delighted to announce the appointment of Alan Houston as Managing Editor. Professor Houston joins the UCSD department this year, having just completed a book on Algernon Sidney. With these changes, two spots became open on the Executive Editorial Committee, which serves the journal as a combination of always dependable, fall-back reviewers and Nocturnal Council. One opening comes from my assumption of the editorship, and the other from the regular six-year rotation that has moved Hanna Pitkin off the committee. The readers of Political Theory are in her debt for the continuing insight and intelligence that she brought to journal affairs. We are very pleased that Richard Ashcraft has agreed to take over for the five years left in the slot that I vacated. Ashcraft is deservedly well-known for his work on political theory and ideology and especially his two magis- terial volumes on Locke. He has changed the way in which we think about Locke; his new work on Mill promises to do the same. Finally, we are delighted that Jane Mansbridge has accepted to fill the other slot. Her recent work, especially Beyond Adversary Democracy, has added an important theoretical and empirical dimension to our understanding of the theory and practice of democracies, as well as to the theory and practice of our understandings of democracy. Some individuals remain. I am delighted that George Kateb has agreed to stay on as Consulting Editor. I have long valued his counsel and corrective. I would have wanted to receive it anyhow. 3
