Drawing on their extensive teaching and fieldwork experience, the authors offer:

A straightforward, accessible style, making even complex ideas easy to understand
A balanced approach, exposing multiple perspectives on contested issues
A focus on both states and citizens, politics from above and below
Discussions of existing policies, as well as policy implications of different approaches
An abundance of rich data and illustrative examples
The result is both an essential text and a long-term resource for students and scholars alike.
