Learning To Govern Together In Representative Democracy - The Dynamics Of Cooperation And Competition In Coalition Governance

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Learning to Govern Together in Representative Democracy introduces a dynamic theory on coalition governance and circular regression for studying joint policy-making of coalition parties, which considers the "pro tempore" nature of representative democracy. Because representative democracy limits the time to govern, the implementation of a common policy agenda is temporarily constrained. In parliamentary democracies, in which coalition governance is the rule, this temporal constraint demands that coalition parties overcome their collective action problems in joint policy-making within a term. This book argues that the cooperative and competitive incentives of coalition parties vary over time. In the beginning of a term, coalition parties only have a prior belief about the type of partnership, and ministerial office-holders, who are responsible for the implementation of a common policy agenda, do not know how many bills they will initiate and whether their partner will respond cooperatively or competitively to their bill proposals. Over time, however, they can learn this type from experienced interactions in joint policy-making to optimize the timing of further bill initiation. To derive propositions and hypotheses on timing of bill initiation, the authors distinguish two learning models, a portfolio-model with autonomous learning from experienced interactions within the own jurisdiction, and a partisan-model with considering experienced interactions of co-partisan office-holders. The empirical examination of these models for the timing of bill initiation covers 11 parliamentary democracies, in which about 25.000 government bills were initiated and immediately approved or scrutinized in parliament. The findings show that ministerial office-holders infer the type of partnership from the duration of parliamentary scrutiny and initiate further bill proposals either early, if they learned about a cooperative type that immediately approved their bills, or late, if they learned about a competitive type that subjected their bills to intense parliamentary scrutiny. The results further reveal variation across the periods of a term, in which the cooperative and competitive incentives of coalition parties vary due to the temporal constrains for representative democracy. The book provides an understanding of the dynamics of coalition effectiveness, stability of coalition government, and satisfaction with coalition governance, which are determined by learning about the cooperative or competitive partnership type, portfolio- or partisan learning, and the early or late timing of bill initiation. Comparative Politics is a series for researchers, teachers, and students of political science that deals with contemporary government and politics. Global in scope, books in the series are characterized by a stress on comparative analysis and strong methodological rigour.

Electoral System Incentives For Interparty And Intraparty Politics

de Brian F. Crisp, Guillermo Rosas, Patrick Cunha Silva e Santiago Olivella

~~91,41€~~ 82,27€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Electoral systems are sets of formal rules that create incentives for strategic behavior on the part of voters, (pre-) candidates, party elites, and elected representatives, including legislators and their chamber leaders. Most simply, they translate the choices made by voters into seats won by candidates and parties. In the process, rules influence both how many and which parties are viable and how elected official will go about their time in office as representatives. All electoral systems share a common set of component rules and each rule can take on a number of different values. When combining the values taken by these rules into a system, the number of possible combinations is quite large, which means that specific systems have the potential to provide precise, targeted incentives that govern relationships between political parties - interparty politics - and within parties - intraparty politics. Using novel computational tools and a comprehensive and updated dataset on electoral systems, this book develops precise and transparent measures of both electoral systems' interparty and intraparty incentives. These two simple quantities capture the extent to which a given system encourages the election of a limited number of large parties or a larger number of relatively smaller ones and the extent to which the lawmaking process will be conducted by unified, programmatic parties or by individually noteworthy politicians. They thus allow scholars to test the extent to which electoral rules shape political outcomes about which we care, and they allow practitioners to select the electoral system that is likely to encourage the form of representation they desire. The book shows that these indicators of electoral system incentives can explain variation in interparty politics - the effective number of parties, parties' locations in the policy space, congruence between citizens' preferences and policy - and intraparty politics - the content of campaigns, the amount of constituency service provided, the shape of legislative institutions, levels of party discipline, and the balance struck between programmatic policy and pork barrel politics. Comparative Politics is a series for researchers, teachers, and students of political science that deals with contemporary government and politics. Global in scope, books in the series are characterized by a stress on comparative analysis and strong methodological rigour.

Prime Ministers In Central And Eastern Europe - Careers, Context, And Performance

de Corinna Kroeber, Florian Grotz, Jan Berz e Marko Kukec

~~98,04€~~ 88,24€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Prime Ministers (PMs) are the most influential, powerful, and visible politicians in parliamentary democracies. Their prominent role has been increasing in Western democracies due to the 'presidentialization of politics'. But is this also true for new democracies, such as those in post-communist Central and Eastern Europe (CEE)? As politics in CEE has been characterized by high personalization, weak voter-party linkages, and strong media influence of political leaders, prime-ministerial performance may be even more important for the functioning of parliamentary democracy in those countries. At the same time, conventional wisdom suggests that prime ministers in CEE perform weakly because they lack political experience and operate in an extraordinarily difficult context, but this assumption has not been systematically examined. To close this research gap, this book presents a new conceptual approach to measuring prime-ministerial performance and offers a novel dataset of 131 cabinets in eleven CEE countries between 1990 and 2018. The comparative analyses of this data reveal that the political experience of post-communist prime ministers varies considerably-they range from politically inexperienced outsiders to insiders with long-standing careers in parliament, government, and party leadership. At the same time, multivariate analyses of the quantitative data and qualitative cases demonstrate that variations in the careers, contexts, and performance of prime ministers are systematically connected. In this way, the book not only qualifies conventional assumptions about prime ministers in CEE but also substantiates the theoretical relationship between their careers, contexts, and performance. Prime Ministers in Central and Eastern Europe thus contributes to an enhanced understanding of the functioning of post-communist democracies and provides new insights for scholarly work engaging with political leadership.

How Europeans View And Evaluate Democracy Revisited - Ten Years Later

~~91,41€~~ 82,27€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 In 2012 How Europeans View and Evaluate Democracy assessed the Europeans' views and evaluations of the state of democracy after one of the deepest economic and financial crises worldwide. Against the most pessimistic a Zeitgeist,a the book found that there was overwhelming support for democracy in Europe, even if the breadth and scope of the citizens' demands for their democratic systems varied within and between countries. Importantly, with very few exceptions, the implementation of the basic democratic principle of free and fair elections was well-evaluated across Europe. However, analysis also showed that there was room for improvement in many countries, according to the citizens' evaluations. Overall, in 2012, there were no symptoms of a democratic crisis in Europe.Ten years and several crises later, the authors reassess how Europeans view and evaluate democracy, and that many changes that have occurred in the meantime. This book, How Europeans View and Evaluate Democracy Revisited, compares how Europeans view and evaluate democracy in 2021-22 and in 2012 based on surveys in 24 European countries. It shows that Europeans continue to be attached to democratic ideals and that they continue to be rather dissatisfied with the way these ideals are implemented in their country. The liberal-democratic model continues to enjoy great support, just as it did a decade ago, and there is also support for additional models of democracy - for social, direct, and populist democracy. Surprisingly, the populist model turns out to be a complement rather than a substitute for the other models.

Meanings Of Voting For Citizens - A Scientific Challenge, A Portrait, And Implications

de Carolina Plescia

~~91,41€~~ 82,27€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence. It is free to read at Oxford Scholarship Online and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations. On Election Day, citizens typically place a mark beside a party or candidate on a ballot paper. The possibility to cast this mark has been a historic conquest and today, voting is among the most frequent political acts for citizens. But what does that mark mean to them? The Meanings of Voting for Citizens explores the diverse conceptualizations of voting among citizens in 13 countries across Europe, Africa, the Americas, and Oceania. The empirical evidence presented in this book is based on nearly a million words about voting from over 25,000 people using an open-ended survey and both qualitative and quantitative methods. The book's innovative approach includes conceptual, theoretical, and empirical advancements, providing a comprehensive understanding of what voting means to citizens and how these meanings influence political engagement. The authors challenge assumptions about universal views on democracy and reveal how meanings of voting vary among individuals and across both liberal democracies and electoral autocracies. It also examines the implications of these meanings for political behaviour and election reforms. The book is a critical reference for scholars of public opinion, behaviour, and democratization, as well as a valuable resource for undergraduate and graduate courses in comparative political behaviour, empirical methods, and survey research. Practitioners working on election reforms will find it particularly relevant, offering insights into how citizens' meanings of voting impact the effectiveness of electoral reforms. Comparative Politics is a series for researchers, teachers, and students of political science that deals with contemporary government and politics. Global in scope, books in the series are characterized by a stress on comparative analysis and strong methodological rigour.

President'S Dilemma In Asia

de Don S. Lee

~~83,46€~~ 75,11€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The President''s Dilemma in Asia provides one of the first comprehensive and comparative theory of presidential government formation. In the authoritarian era, presidents had greater control over key institutional actors in the process, such as the legislature, the ruling party, and the bureaucracy. However, after democratic transition, they have to navigate competing pressures from these political institutions. This book highlights the major trade-off that presidents of new democracies face in their relationship with the different political institutions, the so-called "president''s dilemma," and their strategy in dealing with the dilemma. Existing studies of presidential government formation in new democracies have largely overlooked the entirety of the structure of the political institutions surrounding the president and its impact on the president''s government formation strategy. This book offers a view that government formation is a window to understanding how presidents weigh the benefits of appointing ministers representing different political institutions under a variety of given institutional circumstances. The question of which institution presidents attempt to accommodate through government formation is a high stakes one, and addressing it is important, because particular patterns of personnel distribution can influence the kind of policies political leaders adopt and the level of accountability and responsiveness to constituents these policies represent.Comparative Politics is a series for researchers, teachers, and students of political science that deals with contemporary government and politics.
