This systematic, user friendly, and refreshingly unusual
introduction to comparative politics has not only been updated and
refined in the third edition, but also fully revised to reflect the
impact of major new developments in world politics. Designed to
teach students how to think comparatively and theoretically about
the world they live in, the book is organized around a set of
critical questions-Why are poor countries poor? Why is East Asia
relatively prosperous? What makes a democracy? How can we explain
terrorism and genocide? What leads people to mobilize around a
cause?-each the topic of a full chapter. These issue chapters are
based on the solid methodological and theoretical foundation laid
out in the first part of the book, and the entire text is enhanced
with case studies and graphics.
