New book out: "Coalition Agreements as Control Devices - Coalition Governance in Western and Eastern Europe"

Research team member Hanna Bäck co-authored a book in comparative politics that was published just a few days ago! Together with Heike Klüver and Svenja Krauss she has analysed the content of coalition agreements across a range of parliamentary democracies in Western and Eastern Europe.

The book is the first of its kind and it provides imperative insights as to how coalition agreements actually work. I.e., how coalition parties use negotiations to control their coalition partners when policiy issues are divisive and important or when confronting a hostile minister.
