Clearly written. It is a good option for Bachelor students wanting to know more about democratization. Good to keep it as a reference book.
Many students find it very useful as an essential reading.
Classic text on comparative politics.
A well written book detailing the challenges facing modern democracies.
Excellent text that I use for an Elections and Voting course. It deals with a lot of the issues pertinent to the course and brings experts using original data presenting the state of the art in an accessible manner. I particularly like that new editions really are new editions, that respond to new challenges facing democracy.
There are possibly a few issues that haven't been dealt with in CD4 - challenges to democracy from the economic crisis; impact of leadership on democracies (voting) and political communications (not just campaigns)
