| Description: | It offers a valuable and long overdue assessment of the role of political parties in the theory and practice of consociational demococracy. Combining valuable theoretical and comparative analyses with sensitive in-depth case studies. Working from the basis of Arend Lijphart''s 1968 work on divided societies, the authors go on to look at such cultures and subcultures thirty years on, bringing in new evidence and analysis to bear on the issue. They also examine the essential role of party politics within and between these ^D<"consociational democracies^D>", framing comparisons with a number of countries from Belgium to Israel. |
