In this title, two renowned political scientists make the contrarian, research-based case that - regardless of any other factors political scientists or historians may find relevant - the calculations and actions of rulers are the driving force of all politics, and the primary goal of rulers is to maintain power as long as possible. In this clever and accessible book, Bueno de Mesquita and Smith introduce us to their perspective of the political world. They bare the logic of politics, starting from the simple premise that leaders pursue their own ends, and that populations either have, or more often don't have, the power to constrain them to a significant degree. The book is organized by a series interconnected questions, among them: Why do leaders who wreck their countries keep their jobs for so long? Why do autocracies have dismal economic policies? How are there so many suffering people in resource-rich lands? Why do 'natural disasters' disproportionately strike poor nations? Why do 'evil-doers' so often collect loads of foreign aid? Why are democracies so good at war? In answering these questions, the authors look at politics, the choices of public policies, and even decisions about war and peace as lying outside of conventional thinking about culture and history. They set aside ideas of civic virtue and psychopathology. Such notions simply are not central to understanding what leaders do and why they do it. Instead, Bueno de Mesquita and Smith see politicians as self-interested louts, just the sort of people you wouldn't want to have over for dinner, but without whom you might not have dinner at all. And from this perspective, they are able to answer some perplexing mysteries of politics, shed light on what we read in the newspapers every single day, and offer realistic ways of improving human governance.

一本本可以用十頁紙講完的書。Read the first few chapters and skim the rest. 這本書最大的問題就是業餘，而且花瞭太多時間去業餘。淺薄的另一麵就是很多細節沒有得到起碼的有用的解釋。比如說，當他所認為導緻腐敗的元素一直是固定的時候，那他就有必要解釋一下在不同時間不同地點為什麼checks on corruption産生瞭變化。
评分很討厭這種寫作風格，感覺不舒服，要不就完全嚴謹學術寫作，要不就寫齣暢銷書應有的水準，這種mixed的真心覺得做作討厭。\\#多日後為寫paper的吐槽# 真是的學術著作嗎？？敢不敢再不嚴謹點？
评分重點看瞭看中文版刪節部分，再看的話評價沒有那麼高瞭，部分觀點值得商榷，不過仍然是值得看的好書。
评分中亞一直在推薦書籍裏顯示中譯版，評論說刪節很多，終於提起興趣找來原書看瞭一下，作者的一些觀點非常硬脆斯汀，對民主和獨裁剖析頗獨到。想來天朝實在是地球一奇，經濟與政治瘸著腿跑瞭那麼遠
评分I think selectorate theory is an extention of realism school instead of a stand-alone theory. Overall an exciting theory with somewhat funky examples.
