Citizens living in presidential or parliamentary systems face
different political choices as do voters casting votes in elections
goveed by rules of proportional representation or plurality.
Political commentators seem to know how such rules influence
political behavior. They firmly believe, for example, that
candidates running in plurality systems are better known and held
more accountable to their constituencies than candidates competing
in elections goveed by proportional representation. However, such
assertions rest on shaky ground simply because solid empirical
knowledge to evaluate the impact of political institutions on
individual political behavior is still lacking. The Comparative
Study of Electoral Systems has collected data on political
institutions and on individual political behavior and scrutinized
it carefully. In line with common wisdom results of most analyses
presented in this volume confirm that political institutions matter
for individual political behavior but, contrary to what is widely
believed, they do not matter much.

The study of professionalism among physical scientists, lawyers, engineers, etc. was not matched by such internal examination within the social sciences until much later. Lasswells overview centered on developments in the United States. This classic covers areas ranging from members...

They also present new insights...
