Farrell, David M. Comparing electoral systems. London ; New York, Prentice Hall/Harvester Wheatsheaf, 1997. 22 cm. xiv, 191 pages. Softcover. Excellent condition with only minor signs of external wear. [Contemporary political studies]. Comparing Electoral Systems examines the six principal types of electoral system currently in use: first past the post, alternative vote, second ballot, list, single transferable vote and the current favourite, the 'German' two vote system. A common format is adopted throughout dealing with explanations of how the system operates and its effects on the political system. The coverage is comparative, but particularly close attention is paid to the debate in the UK. The material is up-to-date and makes use of ballot papers and secondary literature sources with clear use of examples throughout. The book concludes with a detailed overview of the consequences of electoral systems and the politics of electoral reform. Comparing Electoral Systems is essential reading for all students of courses on comparative politics, European politics and British politics.
