" Coppedge has written what may well be the best book ever
published on political party behavior in Latin America; it is
extensively researched, methodologically sophisticated, tightly
argued, and well written. . . . The author demonstrates a mastery
not only of Venezuelan and Latin American literature, but also the
major theoretical works on party behavior. . . . The work is
particularly noteworthy in linking political party behavior to the
wider political system, along with suggesting policy changes to
enhance the quality of democratic government. But even more
significantly, the book is bold and imaginative in the sense that
it challenges prevailing scholarship on party behavior and
undoubtedly will provoke controversy." -- American Political
Science Review
" Coppedge provides a wealth of data from extensive interviews with
party elites, thereby shedding light on factionalism and internal
clientelism. There is great richness in his treatment of Accio n
Democra tica, which is the major focus for his investigation. . . .
The book provides insights which merit testing in other countries."
