The politics of coalition lies at the very heart of the political process in most European countries. Coalition can be analysed either theoretically or empirically; the aim of "Multiparty Government" is to reconcile these approaches. Students of European politics are given access to the insights of contemporary coalition theory while this theory is put in the context of the real world of coalition politics. The authors examine five basic themes: the identity and motivation of the actors in the coalition game; the eventual membership of the coalitions they form; their durability; the payoffs that are shared out by coalition members; and the impact of constitutional, behavioural and historical constraints on the process of coalition bargaining. They illustrate their discussion of theory with a range of detailed case studies. "Multiparty Government" offers an accessible approach that bridges the gap between the "European politics" and "game theory" traditions of political science and puts the systematic study of the politics of coalition on the broader political science map.

About the book >.>.> Our key objective in this book is to explore one of the richest, most fascinating, and most important features of European politics: the politics of coalition government. While several edited collections of country studies have appeared since 1980, few authored books have treated coalition government as a general theme in comparative politics. The early days of coalition studies did generate such books, but most recent work on the subject is to be found in the journal literature. We set out to remedy this situation and in doing so have drawn upon the work and ideas of many others. Since we have both been involved in the field for the best part of twenty years, we have come to know personally most of those who have written on coalitions and have had stimulating discussions with many of them. Many of the arguments that we put forward in this book are the indirect product of such discussions, which means that their precise lineage is often difficult to determine. We should therefore claim.
