文档介绍：European Politics and Government (SL 369)
Test #2 Study Guide – Great Britain
Each test will consist of a mix of objective questions drawn from both the lectures
and reading for each section of the course. The following list will offer you significant
guidance in studying for this exam. Keep in mind that this is a guide, not as an exhaustive
list, although I have tried to be thorough. All material from the course is fair game. For
each term/concept you should understand both what it is and why it is significant.
