Comparative Constitutional Engineering (Second Edition) - 2nd Edition by Giovanni Sartori (Paperback)

This book by Giovanni Sartori is a must-read for anyone interested in comparative politics and constitutional design.

In this fully updated second edition, Sartori provides a comprehensive and critical examination of the problems of making democratic government work, including electoral systems, presidential and semi-presidential systems, and parliamentary systems.

He argues that alternating presidentialism is the best solution to avoid political paralysis in countries with dysfunctional parliamentary systems such as Italy and Israel.

With its detailed proposal for a new type of government, this book is a valuable resource for scholars and policymakers alike.
