‘It is about time for another Handbook, and Massey and Johnston have given us a good one. It is to be commended particularly for having avoided the Anglocentricity of some previous volumes. Eminent scholars line up to give us useful frameworks for thinking about governance, and mature analyses of current systems across the continents. An excellent addition to both library and classroom.’
