Systems of Government examines the five major forms of government in the world today. Each book reveals the inner workings of one form of government, setting it in the context of history and relating it to today's turbulent current affairs. Readers will learn how these governments function internally and within the wider world community. They will also encounter some of the dilemmas, contradictions, and compromises that seem to be an essential part of even the most idealistic political systems. Each book features fact boxes, timelines, and carefully chosen images that complement informative text that is packed with case studies and firsthand accounts. Voting Booth panels invite readers to consider thorny issues, both historical and current, and to form their own opinions. Book jacket.
