Drawing on a study of variation in the performance of four ethnic parties in India, this book develops a theory of ethnic party performance in patronage democracies--a family of democracies with distinct patterns of political behavior as well as a new interpretation of Indian democracy. Demonstrating the connection between India's state-dominated economy and the behavior of its voters and politicians, it includes an extensive study of the Bahujan Samaj Party and contemporary ethnic politics in India.
