Donna Lee Van Cott's systematic comparison of indigenous politics across six countries is therefore a courageous and welcome contribution to the growing literature on this topic.' International Affairs

Her new book is an important contribution to the study of political parties, especially to the questions of why indigenous parties form and succeed or fail to … From Movement to Parties is very well researched, clearly and persuasively argued, and well written. It is essential reading for political scientists who work on ethnic parties, social movements, and Latin America.' Political Science Quarterly
