内容説明
The British Polity is a remarkably lucid, accessible, and thoroughly updated revision of Philip Norton's highly-praised text on the institutions and processes, continuity and change of British politics. Among other topics, its comprehensive coverage examines: political history, the British electoral system, the prime minister, cabinet committees, political parties, interest groups, Parliament, the monarchy, relations with the European Community, and mass media.
