联盟政治-大多数欧洲国家政治进程的核心-既可以从理论上分析,也可以从经验上分析。“多党政府”调和了这些办法。它让欧洲政治的学生获得当代理论的洞察力,同时将其应用于现实世界的联盟政治分析。迈克尔·拉弗和诺曼·斯科菲尔德研究了五个基本主题:联盟游戏中参与者的身份和动机;他们形成的联盟的最终成员;他们的持久性;联盟成员分享的收益;以及宪法谈判、行为和历史约束对联盟谈判过程的影响。他们用一系列详细的案例研究来说明他们对理论的讨论。“多党政府”提供了一个可访问的方法,桥梁之间的差距差距的“欧洲政治”和“博弈论”的政治科学传统,并把系统的研究联盟的政治更广泛的政治科学地图。“拉弗和斯科菲尔德的书同时又通俗易懂、简洁、脚踏实地、富有洞察力,是的,甚至是迷人的。就其范围和质量而言,它在政党联盟的文献中没有对手。. .所有研究政党或立法行为的人都应该让自己有幸从拉弗和斯科菲尔德的好书中得到教育和娱乐。“--《美国政治学评论》迈克尔·拉弗是高威大学学院政治学和社会学教授。他的著作包括《玩弄政治》、《私人欲望,政治行动:理性选择政治的邀请》、《犯罪游戏》和《社会选择与公共政策》。诺曼·斯科菲尔德是华盛顿大学政治经济学中心的教授和主任。他是《统计学:社会科学的理论与实践》、《经济学中的数学方法》和《社会选择与民主》的作者。"
The politics of coalition--the very heart of the political process in most European countries--can be analyzed either theoretically or empirically. "Multiparty Government" reconciles these approaches. It gives students of European politics access to the insights of contemporary theory while applying it to an analysis of real-world coalition politics.Michael Laver and Norman Schofield examine five basic themes: the identity and motivation of the actors in the coalition game; the eventual membership of the coalitions they form; their durability; the payoffs that are shared out by coalition members; and the impact of constitutional bargaining, behavioral, and historical constraints on the process of coalition bargaining. They illustrate their discussion of theory with a range of detailed case studies."Multiparty Government" offers an accessible approach that bridges the gap between the "European politics" and "game theory" traditions of political science, and puts the systematic study of the politics of coalition on the broader political science map."Laver and Schofield's book is at the same time accessible, pithy, down-to-earth, insightful, and yes, even captivating. In its scope and quality, it has no rival in the literature of party coalitions . . . all students of political parties or legislative behavior should allow themselves the privilege of being educated and entertained by Laver and Schofield's fine book." --"American Political Science Review"Michael Laver is Professor of Political Science and Sociology, University College, Galway.
