- This is an outstanding and highly original book on a very interesting topic.
- Manow shows that our modern democratic institutions are based on ideas that stem from medieval and early modern forms of political organization, and that many features of modern politics - like the semi-circular seating plan of modern parliaments - are derived from earlier political regimes.
- This will appeal to advanced undergraduates, graduates and academics in politics, political theory and social theory.
