Details

This book explores the role of political culture studies as one of the major investigative fields in contemporary political science. It examines the areas of rational choice, institutions, theories of change, political risk, the environment, and practical politics.

Culture theory was the focal point of the late Aaron Wildavsky's teaching and research for the last decade of his life. These original essays, written in his honour, examine the arenas of rationale choice, institutions, theories of change, political risk, the environment, and practical politics.
