Description
This text was created in response to demands for a brief version of the leading comparative government text, Almond/Powell's "Comparative Politics Today". Consisting of revised and updated chapters from Part I and II of the parent text, it continues the tradition of the "functional approach" pioneered by Almond - examining system, process and policy to understand government. This three-pronged analytic structure allows the reader to move easily and logically from institution to institution and process to process - without losing the essential thread of connection and meaning. The material is up-to-date, and an increased focus on the world-wide process of democratization exists throughout the text.
