Viac o knihe

Exploring the dynamics between governments and their supporting parties across Europe, the book delves into the inherent conflict between the governing responsibilities of governments and the representative aspirations of parties. It empirically analyzes their interactions in three key areas: appointments, policy-making, and patronage. Additionally, it evaluates the reciprocal influence between parties and governments, offering insights into how each shapes the other's operations within the political landscape.
