Summary
Readings in Comparative Politicsis divided into six sections--States and Regimes, Governing the Economy, the Democratic Challenge, Politics of Collective Identity, Political Institutions and Public Policies, and Political Challenges and Changing Agendas--that correspond to the four main themes found in Kesselman'sIntroduction to Comparative Politicssurvey text. The selected readings are drawn from a variety of published, unpublished, and electronic sources. They tend to be general and theoretical in nature and were carefully selected to provide a good sample of the wide range of popular and scholarly views relevant to the major topics presented in introductory courses. The readings provide an extended opportunity to consider the four main themes used in the textbook: A World of States, Governing the Economy, the Democratic Challenge, and the Politics of Collective Identity. Excerpts are culled from a variety of sources including scholarly articles from journals and books, op-ed and newspaper articles, government statements, and statements by interest groups and NGOs in the U.S. and other countries, including published sources and material disseminated by the Internet.
