description: This collection of readings provides an introduction to the classic works and contemporary ideas in comparative politics―and shows how they fit together into a larger understanding of the field. From Weber’s conception of the state to Marx’s prescription for a Communist utopia, the text offers a foundation in the traditional literature on key political concepts. And just as important, readers will also find divergent, often opposing, recent perspectives on these topics.
