Publisher Notes: World Encyclopedia of Parliaments and Legislatures
- This survey of more than 200 articles describes legislative bodies around the world. For each country, the legislative body is described in terms of constitutional approach as well as practice. Chapters depict each parliament or legislature in terms of key characteristics including historical background, elections, relations with the executive branch and judiciary, budgetary control, lawmaking, parliamentary procedures, and members' rights and immunities.
Organized alphabetically by country, the work covers all democracies regardless of size. Sidebars for each country provide essential facts for quick reference, and many country articles are accompanied by bibliographies. Research is made easy by the book's accessible writing style and research aids including maps, charts, a comprehensive index, and glossary.
The World Encyclopedia of Parliaments and Legislatures was developed with the guidance of a 22-member international Editorial Board and with the cooperation and endorsement of the Research Committee of Legislative Specialists and the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association in London.
