The New Year 2010 brings with it a change in Assistant Editors at Political
Theory. We bid a fond farewell to Qigdem Qidam, who has departed the journal
with doctoral degree in hand (University of Minnesota, 2009) for a tenure-track
position in the Department of Political Science at Missouri State University.
During the year that Qigdem served as Assistant Editor, she raised the bar of
excellence in that position to new heights. I admired her communicative com-
petence with authors and reviewers, relied on her electronic and administrative
skills, and deeply appreciated her serious, scholarly, and sympathetic capacities
as an in-house reviewer of manuscripts. The pressures on Assistant Editors can
be intense, yet Qigdem handled the flow of events with consistent steadiness,
grace, and great doses of Western opera, about which she happens to possess a
storehouse of knowledge and understanding.
In saying good-bye to Qigdem, I am very pleased to welcome to the journal
our newAssistant Editor, Ross Carroll, an advanced graduate student at North-
western University. Ross's dissertation is concerned with tracing debates and
disputations about the reading of ancient histories in early modern political
theory, particularly in the works of Bodin, Hobbes, and Hume. The thesis will
also critically assess these three thinkers' respective approaches to writing his-
tory as political theory while theorizing politics historically. I look forward to
working with Ross, who joins Ilya Winham, our other capable and hard-working
Assistant Editor, in the journal's main office.
To all readers of and contributors to Political Theory, thank you for your
support of the journal and best wishes for a very happy new year.
