What is power, and how do communities govern themselves? Who is likely to end up with power in a society, and why? What is the best form of government, what is democracy, and how does a government work? What are all its responsibilities? In this fascinating and visually appealing guide for young readers, Eduard Altarriba takes readers through the potentially confusing world of politics in a step-by-step way, explaining why politics exists and how it operates. This is a very detailed book, covering aspects of politics from the economy to constitutions, the difference between centralised and federal governing systems, propaganda, left and right politics, majorities and coalitions, populism and corruption. Although it’s presented in picture book format, the content of information is definitely suitable for children in Year 6-8 and above – though the ideas are presented well and clearly, even some adults would struggle to understand the difference between, for instance, legislative, judicial and executive power. However, it’s a fascinating book for children interested in how the world works, and would probably benefit from discussion in class or at home.
