Summary |
"Election laws vary greatly across contemporary democratic societies. In Establishing the Rules of the Game, Louis Massicotte, Andre Blais, and Antoine Yoshinaka provide the first thorough examination of these laws. The study incorporates original data collected from more than sixty democracies around the world. The authors focus on six dimensions of election laws: the right to vote, the right to be a candidate, the electoral register, the agency in charge of the election, the procedure for casting votes, and the procedure to sort out the winners and losers."--Jacket |
