To understand what conditions make democracies stable or unstable, effective or ineffective, Professor Eckstein examines the stability and effectiveness of Norwegian democracy. He finds them both to be high. He then examines several theories derived from the study of other democracies or from comparative studies of other democratic and nondemocratic societies. Virtually all present an inadequate explanation of the Norwegian case, because the political divisions in Norway are the kind usually associated with instability and ineffectiveness of democratic rule. The author explains, however, that a profound sense of community exists despite the political cleavages. Originally published in 1966. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

When this book was originally published in 1960, it was unique in two senses. Firstly, it presented the most detailed study of any British pressure group and it placed this detail in the framework of an original general theory of pressure group politics. Most of the book is devoted to a detailed analysis of the political activities of the British Medical Association (BMA). The author analyses the framework of medical policy within which the BMA acts; its structure and the political machinery it tries to influence; the attitudes toward medical politics both of doctors and the general public. He then examines the channels through which the BMA acts in politics and its effectiveness as a pressure group. In two theoretical chapters, the author also discusses the factors which determine the choice of channels through which pressure groups act; the reasons why they are involved in politics to a given extent; the factors which determine their effectiveness and whether pressure groups tend to support or undermine democratic systems. At a time when the BMA continues to exert pressure on the UK government, this book has an enduring relevance.
