Publisher Synopsis
"Entries are organized in a consistent format and include a detailed synopsis of significant events, issues, and political or social crises and controversies that have emerged during the past couple of years. Particularly useful are the descriptions of both major and minor political parties. Entries also include a brief description of legislature bodies and the key ambassadors and the key international memberships of each country...the handbook focuses almost exclusively on describing political systems, the nature of political parties within those systems, and their transitions and, therefore, remains a uniquely valuable resource for students and researchers." -- R. V. Labaree * ARBA * Read more...
