I have just ordered for the library:

Klingemann, H.-D. et al. (2006) Mapping policy preferences II: estimates for parties, electors and governments for Eastern Europe, European Union and OECD, 1990-2003. Oxford: Oxford University Press.

and

McDonald, M.D. and I. Budge (2005) Elections, parties, democracy: conferring the median mandate. Oxford: Oxford University Press.

The former is an update and extension of the following which I have recommended for anyone who wants a more quantitative and systematic analysis of ideological and policy space:

Budge, I. et al. (2001) Mapping party preferences: estimates for parties, electors and governments, 1945-1998. Oxford: Oxford University Press.

The latter could usefully be read alongside:

Hindmoor, A. (2004) New Labour at the centre: constructing political space. Oxford: Oxford University Press.
