A Theory of Parties and Electoral Systems
( Political parties and elections are the mainsprings of ...)
Political parties and elections are the mainsprings of modern democracy. In this classic volume, Richard S. Katz explores the problem of how a given electoral system affects the role of political parties and the way in which party members are elected. He develops and tests a theory of the differences in the cohesion, ideological behavior, and issue orientation of Western parliamentary parties on the basis of the electoral systems under which they compete. A standard in the field of political theory and thought, The Theory of Parties and the Electoral System contributes to a better understanding of parliamentary party structures and demonstrates the wide utility of the rationalistic approach for explaining behavior derived from the self-interest of political actors.

Collecting essays about the experiences of thirteen countries, including the United States, Canada, Great Britain, and Japan, The Patron State presents a global overview of recent government policies in relation to the arts. Each country is analyzed in terms of the forms and levels of government support of the arts; the organizational structure of arts support programs; policy choices; patterns of financial distribution; the impact of government programs on the arts; and the impact of budget cuts that have occurred in virtually every country since the mid-1970s.
