Each chapter focuses on a different institution and compares how they are constructed differently across countries.

Every chapter finishes with a set of questions and recommended readings. This approach allows for a very practical approach to politics that encourages critical analysis.\n\nUpdates to this new edition include:\n\nupdated comparison-based tables and box feature.
