Summary: Essential reading for understanding patronage
Comment: Like it or love it, you cannot avoid this book. If you are studying patron-client based systems, if you wonder what causes patronage or "political machines" in this country or anywhere in the world, you must start with this book. Has been out of print and has fortunately been reissued, because this is just a classic. Don't expect light, easy reading, however, or a friendly conversational style. This is academic writing at its best. The authors use examples from all over the world, and while some of the wording (about the communist systems) is out of date, their analysis is not.
