W. Phillips Shivelys Power & Choice offers an indepth look into the nuances of politics, both domestic and international, through the use of multiple comparative perspectives and theoretical approaches.

Using extended case examples from around the world, Power & Choice provides undergraduate students with a clear and engaging introduction to political philosophy, comparative legal systems, and international politics.Highlights of the fifteenth edition: Additional coverage of the continuing fallout of the 20082009 worldwide economic crisis, the failed Arab Spring, the upsurge of populism and the fragility of democracies, and the Nigerian elections.
