2. It takes an explicitly comparative perspective or produces findings the implications of which ware highly significant for comparative research.
    
3. It is written in an accessible style and form so that it is of value both to scholars and practitioners.

The Levine Prize will be awarded to the book published in 2006 that best meets these criteria. Nominations should be made by 31 March 2007 and sent to the chair of the committee. Please send a copy of the book to all three members of the committee:
