Good clean copy, has minor scuffing on cover.
Review
"The great global struggles today are not over democracy versus other forms of government but over the meanings and practices of democracy themselves. There is no better critical and engaged survey of the complex histories and contemporary struggles over this deeply contested concept than David Held′s third and improved edition of Models of Democracy, precisely because it is written in awareness of its own contestability."
James Tully, University of Victoria
"Models is the kind of established classic which both demands and merits revision every decade or so."
David Beetham, University of Leeds
"Everyone who has used Models will welcome this new edition. Newcomers will find a wide–ranging and reliable analysis of past and present debates about democracy and gain an understanding of what is at issue in current global arguments."
Carole Pateman, Cardiff University and University of California at Los Angeles

Paperback. Six pages scattered through the text show HI-LIGHTING AND MARGINALIA. Else, Near Fine in Wraps: shows only the most minute indications of use: The spine leans some; but the binding remains perfectly secure; otherwise remarkably bright and clean. Clearly, this is a flawed copy, but one that remains, in appearance, very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. xii, 321 pages.
