Presents a bibliography of recent works of various aspects of politics, including political systems, international politics, the European Union, & political science.

This edition of the Z-Pol Bibliography contains 605 new publications in the subject areas of general political science; comparative political science; political systems; the European Union; international politics; & political philosophy, ideology, political theory. Adapted from the source document.

This article introduces the system by which the subsequent 483 new books & contributions are presented & organized, including ISBNs, categories & subcategories & how cross-referencing is handled. Exceptions to the incorporation of more comprehensive bibliographic data include new additions to earlier source editions or classic editions; unaltered reprints; or new reprints marked as "revised" but which are clearly unaltered. Books whose content is self-explanatory via the title are not annotated; books in neighboring disciplines whose titles indicate they are relevant but actually aren't will nonetheless receive a short review. Due to a cooperative effort with the Magazine for Political Science & the Social Science Information Center, where the ZPOL bibliography resides in database form, all political science contributions & books dating to May of 1995 are available in collected volumes, & one can use the ZPOL book to inform oneself about all the contributions appropriate to one's own field of study. Following this explanation is a brief overview of the hierarchical taxonomic structure of headings -- General, European Union, International Politics -- & their subcategories, followed by summations of each new contribution as organized within this overall framework, followed by some registries.
