Legislative Assemblies

Voters, Members, and Leaders

Beschreibung

This book analyzes national legislative assemblies in the world's 68 most populous democracies, based on three models of ideal types of democratic assembly. The authors show that the fate of incumbents is dependent on member resources and leadership control but is ultimately constrained by voter confidence.
