This ground breaking volume offers a range of alternative approaches to political science, highlighting problems too rarely confronted by "mainstream" political scientists. Ranging from 'Gunfighter Sagas' to 'the changing faces of an imaginary Mars, ' the innovative chapters introduce whole new ways of re-thinking politics, stirring up the all too conventional ways of the discipline.
