政党和选举是现代民主的主要源泉。在这本经典的书中，理查德·S·卡茨探讨了特定的选举制度如何影响政党的角色和政党成员的选举方式的问题。他开发并测试了一种理论，即西方议会政党在选举制度的基础上，在凝聚力、意识形态行为和问题导向方面的差异。作为政治理论和思想领域的标准，政党理论和选举制度有助于更好地理解议会政党结构，并展示了理性主义方法在解释政治行为者自身利益所产生的行为方面的广泛用途。
Political parties and elections are the mainsprings of modern democracy. In this classic volume, Richard S. Katz explores the problem of how a given electoral system affects the role of political parties and the way in which party members are elected. He develops and tests a theory of the differences in the cohesion, ideological behavior, and issue orientation of Western parliamentary parties on the basis of the electoral systems under which they compete. A standard in the field of political theory and thought, The Theory of Parties and the Electoral System contributes to a better understanding of parliamentary party structures and demonstrates the wide utility of the rationalistic approach for explaining behavior derived from the self-interest of political actors.
