Seminar paper from the year 2002 in the subject Politics - Political systems in general and in comparison, grade: 2,0 (B), Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen (Nijmegen School of Management), course: The American Political System, language: English, abstract: The following paper is a result of the course "The American Political System" given by Prof. Slomp at the Faculty of Management of the University of Nijmegen, where the author studies as an exchange student at the moment.
