Von der hinteren Coverseite

Democracy is the most widely used way of organizing politics in the contemporary world. Comparative Democratic Politics brings together a team of renowned international scholars to provide a comprehensive review of theory and research in this essential area of comparative study. Four major themes covered are:· the contribution of comparative politics as a distinct field within political science to our understanding of democracy, democratic politics and democratic theory· what we can learn from a comparative analysis of the role, functioning and behaviour of the principal actors (electorate, parties and institutions) across nations · the relationship between politics and public policy formation and processes of democratic decision-making and corresponding policy-making capacity· how we measure contemporary democracy or democratic performance in both a procedural and material sense.Comparative Democratic Politics will be essential reading for all students and academics of political science and public policy.
