W. Phillips Shiveley, Power and choice, an Introduction to Political Science
This book is a comparative, conceptual introduction to political science, organized topically rather than country-by-country, providing in-depth examples at the end of most chapters to provide greater richness about various countries than a topical treatment would normally provide. The theme of "power and choice," based on a definition of politics as the making of collective choices for a group or state using power, runs through much of the text. This general, comparative introduction to the major concepts and themes of political science engages students and researchers with concrete analytical examples without overwhelming.
This book is proposed to students (Bachelor, Master and Doctoral Degree), professors, researchers and policy-makers as well. “Power and choice, an Introduction to Political Scienc”e is available at the library of the Albanian Council on Foreign Relations.
