Government Formation by Rudy B. Andeweg & Lieven De Winter

Coalition Theory and Deviant Cases

Brings together a rational choice theory perspective and the empirical testing of the theories to study government formation. Understanding the formation of governments has always been central to political science. Traditionally this topic has been considered from a rational choice theory perspective and the empirical testing of these theories. However, neither approach alone is able to explain a large proportion of actual coalition formations. This comparative volume brings together both strands to study government formation. The authors use rational theories to identify deviant cases, and then explore the formation of ten of these governments in detail. Finally, on the basis of this research the authors assess whether new factors can be integrated into rational choice theories or whether these analyses point to the need for a different paradigm.
