Richard W. Mansbach

Richard Wallace Mansbach (born 1943) is an American political scientist.

Mansbach studied political science, history, and Spanish at Swarthmore College and graduated in 1964.[1] He then attended the University of Oxford as a Marshall Scholar.[2][3] After completing his dissertation, Mansbach joined the Swarthmore College faculty, in 1967.[4] He became an assistant professor in 1968.[5] Mansbach remained at Swarthmore for two years.[1] While teaching at Rutgers University, Mansbach was named a fellow of the American Council on Education in 1981,[6] and worked for the Central Intelligence Agency.[7][8] He later moved to Iowa State University.

From 1999 to 2004, Mansbach was a co-editor of International Studies Quarterly, an official journal of the International Studies Association.[9][10] The ISA's Midwest Region had previously awarded Mansbach and Yale H. Ferguson the Lynne Rienner/Quincy Wright Award for their coauthored 1996 book, Polities: Authority, Identities, and Change.[11] In 2014, Mansbach received the ISA's James N. Rosenau Award.[12] In 2017, the ISA convened a Distinguished Scholar Panel to honor Mansbach and Ferguson.[13] ISA–Midwest honored Mansbach again in 2021, with the Quincy Wright Distinguished Scholar Award.[14]
