About the book
I have just reviewed this book titled as the Centre
parties: polarization and competition in European Parliamentary Democracies [Paperback] written by Reven Hazav, which has been described as follows by the author:
"What kind of impact do centre parties have in parliamentary
democracies? How does the existence and growth of centre parties affect party
system polarization, electoral competition and government stability? This text
reassesses the perception of centre parties as a force of moderation. The
author argues that this intuitive judgement, which has become accepted by political
scientists is dubious, if not incorrect. He examines contemporary centre
parties in Europe and asserts that the opposing tendency of centre parties
contributes to party system polarization"
It should be considered as a basic reading on centre parties and its political spectrum.
