This book is concerned with changes in the social structures,
demographics, and issues in Western democracies along with the
impact of those changes on party systems and policy outcomes. Three
countries - the United States, the Netherlands, and Belgium - are
examined to determine how they accommodate these changes. The
United States is investigated as an example of a stable
consolidated party system, the Netherlands is included as a
representative fragmented parliamentary regime, and Belgium is an
extreme example of a sub-culture alienated from the rest of the
country. The conflict between the representation function and the
function of forming a majority able to govern is stressed.
