Parties and Their Members - Scarrow, Susan E. (Associate Professor, Deprtment of Political Science, Associate Professor, Deprtment of Political Science, University of Houston, Texas)

This book investigates changing relations between parties and their members in four major British and German political parties. By calling attention to the varied benefits members can provide for parties even in a mass-media age, this account helps to explain why some party leaders have been willing to back recent expansions of intra-party democracy.
