Description
In politics, individual political behaviour is often ascribed to class and ethnic identity. How does this happen In this text, Neelder shows how individuals construct their political identities, and develop ideologies that guide their political behaviour. Intended as an alternative to traditional introductory texts in politics and political science, this book is, at the same time, a survey and introduction to comparative and American politics, and a review of contemporary international relations. These topics are combined in such a way as to provide a text for undergraduates and laypersons.
