      abstract = {The book focuses on the traditional view of party-voter  representation, parties and their respective positions, and  party systems as central actors, the role of governmental  institutions as well on policy inputs, outputs, and  outcomes and the agenda setting process. The fundamental  characteristics of the political actors such as political  parties and the party system and their ideological  composition are dealt with. The role governmental  institutions play in the policy making process are  exemplified covering the characteristics of the  agenda-setting power and the consequences for the  government's survival. The results of these mechanisms are  analyzed while focusing on some classical policies of  comparative research such as social and environmental  policy.
