Focusing on the relationship between electoral systems and political party dynamics, Richard S. Katz analyzes how different systems influence party cohesion, ideology, and issue orientation in Western parliamentary contexts. Through a rationalistic approach, the book tests a theory that sheds light on the behavior of political actors driven by self-interest. As a foundational work in political theory, it enhances the understanding of parliamentary party structures, making significant contributions to the field.
