    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    This book provides an integrated account of French political experience, explaining three key features: the role of political ideas, the nature of political movements, and the significance of history in creating and sustaining divisions among political groups. It has chapters on the roles of intellectuals, the ideologies of republicanism, clericalism, and nationalism, and the functions of the state. The last four chapters examine the political traditions of liberalism, socialism, Gaullism, and Communism.

    the book continually beguiles the reader by the skill and economy with which it explains complex matters in a way that is both intelligible to the relative newcomer to French politics and is a lesson to seasoned travellers on how to combine simplicity of exposition with fidelity to the subtleties of the subject ... this book is a valuable addition to the surprisingly lean list of works that successfully make sense of political traditions of the last two centuries in France without oversimplification or distortion. It would seem destined for a long life as staple student reading.
