This comprehensive book examines a wide variety of international and historical political systems, inviting readers to compare and contrast their own system of government with different systems around the world. it also looks at how modern politics has evolved over time, what systems seem to work best, and what makes them successful. It also explores notable failed states and governments and compares these to the successes. This sophisticated series on global politics will help readers analyse international political structures, both modern and historical. it also encourages readers to gin a deeper understanding of how the seemingly adult world of politics touches their own lives.
