AB  - "The field of political science underwent a behavioralist transformation in the postwar period due to the influence of private philanthropic foundations that funneled large amounts of money to public universities. Drawing extensively on the archival records, Hauptmann examines the interchanges between the Carnegie, Ford, and Rockefeller philanthropies and the universities of California and Michigan. She uncovers the way these foundations spurred distinct academic innovations in the study of politics that continue to shape the study of political science in the United States and elsewhere.
