The purpose of a political dictionary is to acquaint the reader with the terms used by policy-makers, journalists, commentators, and analysts, in discussing national and international politics. Without such a volume, which explains not only political (and some economic and military) terms but major organizations and systems of government, the news media are often difficult to fully comprehend.
