The aim of this book is threefold. First to put in one place for
the convenience of both scholars and practitioners the basic data
on redistricting practices in democracies around the world.
Remarkably, this data has never before been collected. Second, to
provide a series of short case studies that look in more detail at
particular countries with regard to the institutions and practices
that have evolved for redistricting and the nature of the debates
that have arisen. Third, to begin to look in comparative
perspective at the consequences of alternative redistricting
mechanisms and at the tradeoffs among competing redistricting
criteria.
This volume has contributions from some of the leading specialists
on redistricting in the world. The chapters reflect a mix of
country-specific material, chapters that are broadly comparative,
and chapters whose contributions are more methodological in nature.
The chapters in this volume provide an indispensable introduction
to the institutions, practices, and consequences of boundary
delimitation around the world.
Comparative Politics is a series for students and teachers of
political science that deals with contemporary issues in
comparative government and politics. The General Editors are David
M. Farrell, Jean Monnet Chair in European Politics and Head of
School of Social Sciences, University of Manchester and Alfio
Mastropaolo, University of Turin. The series is published in
association with the European Consortium for Political Research.
