30-Second Politics

The 50 most thought-provoking theories in politics, each explained in half a minute

Steven L. Taylor

30-Second Politics challenges political theorists of all colours to come up with no-frill, no-spin, tell-it-like-it-is explanations of the 50 most important political -isms, -archies, and -ocracies that have pertained since the time of Periclean Athens. At no public expense, it explains each political theory in nothing more than two pages, and 300 words.

Published: May, 2011

Editor Steven L. Taylor is Professor of Political Science at Troy University, Alabama.
He specialises in Latin American politics and is the author of Voting Amid Violence: Electoral Democracy in Colombia (2009) and is currently working on a project comparing the Unites States to 29 other democracies.
