Comparative Politics Today: A World View 6th Ed.

Description

The authors of this book pioneered the functional approach to comparative politics. In this text, they introduce a three-part framework of system, process and policy to help spell out how different kinds of political systems are formed, maintained and changed through cultural and structural processes. This threefold analytic structure also provides the outline for the individual country studies, enabling readers to move easily and logically from institution to institution, and from process to process, without losing the essential thred of connection and meaning. Coverage has been expanded in this edition to include Egypt, India, Nigeria and Brazil. ISBN:9780673524744
