Reviews for Democracy and Social Peace in Divided Societies: Exploring Consociational Parties

This new book by Matthijs Bogaards makes a significant and highly original contribution to the literature on consociational democracy by studying the seven major political parties that have been internally consociational. It constitutes a crucial theoretical advance that will be of great interest to all scholars and students who study the problems of divided societies. - Arend Lijphart, University of California, USA
