Electoral Systems : A Theoretical and Comparative Introduction, Hardback Book

Electoral Systems : A Theoretical and Comparative Introduction Hardback

Part of the Theory and Practice in British Politics series

Hardback

Description

This text is designed to give students a comprehensive view of the British electoral system.

Its innovative comparative and theoretical approach will provide a link between courses in British politics, comparative politics and political theory.

The book looks at electoral systems in relation to democratic theory and examines the justification for modern electoral rules.

It compares parliamentary elections with various other kinds of election, and it looks at the differences between British experience and that of other countries. Andrew Reeve and Alan Ware aim to inform the debate about whether our electoral system should be reformed, by raising such crucial issues as the connection between democracy and the electoral process, the significance of the territorial dimension in the British electoral system, and the role the election system plays in allocating values in a society.
