Description: A political scientist and a comparative lawyer have joined forces to produce a revised and expanded version of the late S. E. Finer's classic Five Constitutions. Their book gives the present texts of four important constitutions, the American, German, French, and Russian. It adds the basic political structure of the European Union, and provides a full account of the British constitution in the terms revealed by examination of the other texts.

A general chapter on comparing constitutions is complemented by a careful analytical index. This carefully edited and stimulating text will be required reading for all students of Politics and Law.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references and indexes.
