Understanding Singapore Politics is written to address the dearth
of a succinct overview on Singapore politics. This introductory
text looks at the factors that shape the island-republic's domestic
politics, the key institutions and issues in the city-state,
electoral power as well as the political direction Singapore is
likely to take in a post-Lee Kuan Yew era. The specific
institutions covered for discussion include the mass media, trade
unions, civil service and grassroots organisations. The role of
civil and civic society, including pressures for democratisation,
is also examined. In addition, various new political issues - the
importance of race, income equality and migration - and their
implications are discussed. Finally, the linkage between
Singapore's domestic and foreign policy is analysed. This
foundational guide to Singapore politics is recommended for anyone
who has an interest or a stake in the island republic.
