Inhaltsangabe

Simpson analyzes the erroneous assumptions of the members of the Progressive Conservative Party, who, conditioned by an extended spell in opposition, could not wield effectively the political power they had won. The Conservatives' misfortunes represent a classic case of an opposition party failing to appreciate the demands of governing, that is, the discipline of power. In Simpson's account of the elections of 1979 and 1980, he describes how an election campaign is structured around private manipulations. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
