Founded in 1984, Lynne Rienner Publishers remains a rare, independent presence in scholarly and textbook publishing. We publish in the fields of international studies and comparative politics (all world regions), US politics, and sociology and criminology (with a US focus). We also have a small list of third world literature in translation, including books by such notable authors as Naguib Mahfouz, Ghassan Kanafani, Maryse Conde, Derek Walcott, and Tawfiq al-Hakim. Our distribution clients include the Center for US-Mexican Studies at the University of California, San Diego and Ayebia Clarke Publishing. Lynne Rienner Publishers is a proud sponsor of the ISA Annual Convention 2011.
