Opis

More complex political institutions produce more stable and socially efficient the outcomes; this book develops an extensive analysis of that relationship. It explores concepts, questions, and insights based on social choice theory, focusing on more than forty democratic countries and several international organizations from late medieval times to the present.

Recenzje

The author's erudition, along with his masterful application of social choice theory, make this book compulsory reading for students of comparative politics and constitutional law.
