Politics & International Relations new books

Comparative PoliticsPrinciples of Democracy and Democratization

John T. IshiyamaUniversity of North Texas, USA

“This book stands out from other textbooks on

comparative politics. It represents a rare

accomplishment as it has a focus on a substantively

signifi cant issue, that of democracy and

democratization, which also serves as an instructional

tool for problem-based learning”

Kerstin Hamann, University of Central Florida

Comparative Politics shows how democracy may not be the best institutional arrangement, dependent on a country’s unique set of international, economic, social, cultural, and historic circumstances. This unique textbook addresses the contextual conditions which promote, or hinder democratic development.
