The Study of Politics

by Maurice Duverger

This major contribution to political science by one of Europe's foremost theorists centres around the intellectual and political struggle between Marxism and liberal democracy - a struggle that has shaped Western experience for over a century - and provides an historical perspective on contemporary society. The author offers no final solutions, but balances the necessity for political conflict against the necessary limits of that conflict. Maurice Duverger is Professor in the Faculty of Law and Economic Science, University of Paris.
