Elections in all the world's democracies have changed radically over the past forty years. The advent of television, opinion polls, and campaign consultants has transformed the nature of the contests--but what some see as the 'Americanization' of electioneering has happened very differently in different countries.

This is a study in comparative government; it is a)so a pragmatic examination of the most essential element of any democracy--free elections.
