Dr. Lucker is currently researching a book on American
polling pioneer Samuel Lubell. Dr. Lucker also
recently completed a chapter on the Ohio legislative
process for an edited book on Ohio politics that will be
released in the fall of 2007.
His first
book, V. O. Key Jr., The Quintessential Political
Scientist (New York: Peter Lang Publishing,
2001) focused on an extensive examination of the
work and life of one of the most important American
political scientists of the twentieth century, V. O.
Key, Jr. (1908-1963). The research is based on
Key's voluminous personal papers, interviews with
his family, colleagues, and graduate students, plus
thorough study of all of his published and
unpublished writings, much of which is not readily
accessible today.
Dr. Lucker is an active
participant in the American Political Science
Association, the Southern Political Science
Association, and the Ohio Association of Economists and
Political Scientists. |
