Description

"Comparative Politics of the Third World offers just the right blend of theory and substance to introduce students in a meaningful way to the developing - or not developing - world. Avoiding overgeneralization on the one hand and the problems of a strictly country-by-country approach on the other, authors Green and Luehrmann consistently link concepts pertaining to history, politics, economics, and international relations to a set of eight case studies: the "classic" cases of Mexico, Nigeria, Iran, and China and the "alternative" cases of Peru, Zimbabwe, Turkey, and Indonesia. Their approach, an accessible and even compelling narrative, is directed specifically at today's undergraduate students."--Jacket.
