This book, first published in 1986, takes a fresh look at coalition
theory in the light of the European coalition experience. This
volume attempts to marry theory and practice by avoiding the pure
abstraction of the formal coalition theories on the one hand and
the over-descriptiveness of some of the empirical work on the
other. This volume of theoretical or comparative chapters and
national case-studies presents and applies an 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. In doing so, it aims at encouraging a fresh
direction in coalition research by focusing on coalitional
behaviour as a continuous and dynamic process rather than one
confined to the formation of coalitions, as well as by overcoming
the isolation of coalition studies.
