More about the book
The book delves into the mechanics of parliamentary democracy, emphasizing how elected representatives form and sustain governments through strategic interactions among parties. It presents a theoretical model to illustrate this process, exploring how governments are created, maintained, or replaced following resignations or votes of no confidence. The authors derive empirical hypotheses from their model and validate them using data from postwar Europe, providing a comprehensive analysis of the dynamics within parliamentary systems.
