Descrizione del libro

This book, first published in 1986, takes a fresh look at coalition theory in the light of the European coalition experience. The contributors examine theoretical, comparative and national case-studies to the inductive model for coalitional behaviour in the form of a multi-dimensional framework based on the hypothesis of political parties as the central actors in coalition politics.
