Party Elites in Divided Societies - Political Parties in Consociational Democracy (Electronic book text)

Working from the basis of Arend Lijphart's 1968 work on divided societies, the authors go on to look at such cultures and subcultures thirty years on, bringing in new evidence and analysis to bear on the issue. They also examine the essential role of party politics within and between these DEGREESD, framing comparisons with a number of countries from Belgium to Israel.
