American political scientist From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Peter Gourevitch (born 1943) is a political scientist who is known for his research in international relations and comparative politics.[1] He is professor emeritus of political science at the University of California, San Diego.[1]
He received his B.A. from Oberlin College and a Ph.D. in Political Science from Harvard University in 1969. He is a former fellow of the Russell Sage Foundation and the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation. He is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and chairs its selection committee for International Affairs Fellowships.

Gourevitch is well known within the International Relations community for having first coined the term "second image reversed" in a 1978 article that re-examined Kenneth Waltz's three images theory.[2] Gourevitch argued in the article that the international system could affect the domestic political system (causality did not just go the other way).[2]
