Power and Choice offers an in-depth look into the nuances of politics through the analysis of collective choices for a group or state through the use of power. Organized topically and using extended case examples from around the world, Power and Choice provides undergraduate students with a clear and engaging introduction to political science and comparative politics.
The Seventeen Edition has been updated to address the growing importance of understanding the modern resurgence of fascism, the growth in global populism, the Trump phenomenon in the United States, additional discussion of political violence, the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine and Western responses to it, the current war in Gaza, the growing global strength of the developing world, global effects of immigration, and further discussion of the discipline of political science.
