Unmarked; moderate wear. "This is a concise but comprehensive survey of the political systems of the United Kingdom, the USA, the USSR, the French Fifth Republic and the Federal Republic of Germany, in a comparative form, linked and organized by reference to Easton's model of the political system. Where appropriate and illuminating, illustrations from countries other than these five are used. Conceptual and definitional problems - what is a 'party system'?, what distinguishes a 'federation' from a 'confederation'? - are dealt with, and the historical dimension informs the book throughout. The five countries treated are compared individually in each chapter, but classifications or groupings are identified where appropriate. The conclusion draws together the salient points from the earlier chapters to consider the extent to which the USSR and western democracies are quite distinct, or possibly converging, forms of political system.".
