* On behalf of other members of the selection committee—Beverly Cook, University of Wisconsin, Chair, and Robert H. Blank, University of Idaho—John Wahlke of the University of Arizona presented the citation, which reads in part: “What impressed the Committee about this work was its demonstration of genuine intellectual power, in the breadth and depth of its grasp of a complex and tricky problem and in its skillful reduction of theoretical abstractions to political and historical actualities in Peru and Argentina. The work exhibits and applies the best of traditional comparative politics; sophisticated concern for a major theoretical problem of political science significance since Aristotle (namely, the role and character of political coercion in human society); versatility and skill in methodology, beginning, with impressive historical case-study accounts of coercion under varying political regimes in Peru and Argentina and going on to subject these data to systematic and rigorous analysis, using mainly content analysis and factor analysis.”
