  Tyrants, dictators, monarchs, ballots, petitions, protests, - what do these have to do with you? History is studded with moments of high drama and periods of deep conflict - street battles, mass demonstrations and civil wars - as people have fought for the form of government they wanted. This thought provoking series introduces the key characteristics of political and economic systems and each book tells the story of one strand of politics; how it developed as a set of ideas from its origins to the present. Each book contains: - top-quality text in clear, accessible language - photos, maps and diagrams - summary information on key players, thinkers and leaders - timeline, glossary and index.
