What is Politics? by Adrian Leftwich
What is politics? Is it a universal feature of all human societies, past and present? Is it tied to specific institutional arenas? Or is it found in all groups and organizations, large or small, formal or informal? This new textbook seeks to provide answers to these important questions.
‘I know of no other work that gives such a good indication of the various ways in which the study of politics can be approachedThis book will be immensely helpful for new students.’ Michael Levin, Goldsmith’s College, University of London
‘This is a superb volume, which should quickly establish itself at the top of politics reading lists at all levels. No student of politics can afford not to read it; its publication is cause for considerable celebration. The chapters themselves are suitably diverse and, at the same time, accessible, eloquent and engaging. They establish supremely well the inherently contested nature of the subject matter of political analysis and can only serve to improve both mutual understanding between contending views of politics and the quality of future academic debate.’ Colin Hay, University of Birmingham
