This book concerns the financing of politics, political parties, candidates and elections in eleven countries.
Booknews
These original papers focus in an integrated manner on how eleven countries finance their politics, political parties, candidates and elections. There are case studies, country-by-country comparisons, and a conceptual framework for understanding the context of the issues and problems involved. Both public (or state) and private modes of political finance are considered. Caution: the countries examined are all described as democratic and pluralistic, characterizations not without controversy. With notes and many useful tables. Acidic paper. Annotation c.
