How to Map Arguments in Political Science
ISBN: 9780199286676 / Angielski / Twarda / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

This book makes an argument about the most useful first cut into explanations of action. It illustrates the map with reference to political examples and a wide range of political science literature, but the scheme applies even more broadly across the social sciences...
