Recenzii

"The transfer of power is fundamental to the proper functioning of our political and administrative institutions. Yet, students of government and practitioners have little in the way of literature to guide their understanding of how power changes hands. This book fills a void in a comprehensive and insightful fashion. It brings a theoretical, empirical and comparative perspective to planning government transitions."
- Donald J. Savoie, Canada Research Chair in Public Administration and Governance, Université de Moncton, Canada
