This first edition text for the introductory Comparative Politics course uniquely achieves a balance between the methodology and science of politics and the comprehendible, comprehensive type of text that will truly prepare a student with little background to understand key concepts, theories and foundations of political science. Impressive as an introduction to the science of comparative politics, the author blends a nuts and bolts approach with meaningful historical and contemporary political examples and blends these examples with a strong theoretical background. Written in an exceptionally clear tone and accompanied by websites, exercises and readings, this text will reach out to the introductory level student while also presenting material that can be used to continue students’ training in scholarly research. Now packaged with PowerWeb, a dynamic course-specific rather than book-specific supplement that engages your students in three levels of resource materials and provides a true avenue to extending learning about a subject, Comparative Politics: A Global Introduction is a necessity in any Comparative Government course.

Beginning with Khruschev's abortive attempts to repair the relationship between the Soviet Union and Germany, this book examines dealings between the two countries over the 30 years leading up to German re-unification. It shows how Soviet policy ebbed and flowed until Gorbachev made a decisive break with the past.
