Rezensionen

"This book examines the importance of political parties to foreign policy given the surprising results of elections in liberal democracies in recent years. It advances our knowledge of party politics to account for the content, degree, timing and policy area of foreign policy change through a nuanced account of the nexus of international and domestic pressures on party competition. Our knowledge of party politics and foreign policy change are substantially enriched as a result of this timely and welcome contribution to the literature." - Cameron G. Thies, Professor of Political Science, School of Politics and Global Studies, Arizona State University, USA.

"Finally, a book dedicated to political parties and foreign policy. Chryssogelos upends the external/internal dichotomy, showing how the dynamics of party competition determine how states respond to structural pressures. The volume pushes the boundaries of the field, bringing society and the state back into the politics of foreign policy change, and weaving together a host of themes in electoral and party politics. Essential reading for anybody interested in the link between politics at home and abroad." - Benjamin Martill, Lecturer in Politics and International Relations, University of Edinburgh, UK.
