Third World Politics: A Concise Introduction

Rating:
Summary: Solid textbook
Review: I purchased this book as a pre-requisite for a political science class. I thought that tis book would be boring and written as a text book, but it was enjoyable to read. I especially like reading about how Government's in Third world countries interact on economic, social, and religious levels.

Summary: Solid textbook
Review: There are not many good texts that attempt to cover the common dilemmas of regions considered part of the 'third world.' Given the competition, this is a solid textbook that take a broad view of political, economic, and social change. Supplemented by more detailed explorations of particular countries or regions, this would be a good textbook for studying the developing world.
