Political Uncertainty

"The book comes at an opportune time, when political uncertainty is rife. It rightfully traces political uncertainty to competing mechanisms of political accountability and masterfully links it to contemporary debates about the nature of democracy. This is a most timely synthesis." Laurence Whitehead, Senior Research Fellow, Nuffield College, Oxford University

"Writing about uncertainty in no uncertain terms is a gargantuan task. Dr Dimova tackles it systematically and comprehensively." Ruslan Stefanov, Director of Economic Program, Centre for the Study of Democracy, Bulgaria

"Political uncertainty is an important concept to understand. The book presents an illuminating comparison of two of Europe's most important, but rarely compared, polities Germany and Russia." Maria Popova, Associate Professor of Political Science, McGill University

With its introduction of the concept `inter-institutional uncertainty and its fascinating comparison of Germany and Russia, Gergana Dimova s Political Uncertainty is a highly original as well as timely contribution to political science. Barbara Vis, Professor of Politics & Governance, Utrecht University
