- This single-authored book includes 10 chapters. It provides a novel theory, novel data on ministers' biographies, one empirical chapter on ministerial appointments, two empirical chapters on ministers' policy impact and three extensive and very detailed case studies establishing the role of ministers through process tracing. Two of the case studies (Ireland and the Netherlands) include in-person interviews with politicians and trade union activists. While parts of the theoretical chapter and chapter four on the policy role of ministers in social policies have been published in a peer reviewed journal (Comparative Political Studies), all the chapters provide original and extensive research.
