News Media Coverage of the Vice-Presidential Selection Process: What's Wrong with the "Veepstakes"?
ISBN: 9783031281655 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book provides the first systematic, empirical analysis of the media’s approach to US vice-presidential selection (or the “veepstakes”). In their news coverage, Devine finds that media outlets typically treat vice-presidential selection as little more than a game—by focusing on how potential running mates might help to win the election, rather than how they might help the next president to govern. Based on an original content analysis of hundreds of veepstakes profiles from 2000–2020, this book quantifies the news media’s relative emphasis on various selection criteria, in...

Jury Decision Making: The State of the Science
ISBN: 9780814720196 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 283 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. While jury decision making has received considerable attention from social scientists, there have been few efforts to systematically pull together all the pieces of this research. In Jury Decision Making, Dennis J. Devine examines over 50 years of research on juries and offers a -big picture- overview of the field. The volume summarizes existing theories of jury decision making and identifies what we have learned about jury behavior, including the effects of specific courtroom practices, the nature of the trial, the characteristics of the participants, and the evidence itself. Making...

Natural Law Ethics
ISBN: 9780313307027 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The natural law tradition, which takes as central to moral discussion an appeal to our common humanity, provides a sustainable and attractive approach to problems of ethics and morals. This volume presents a contemporary version of natural law ethics, one that does not rely for support on the authority of Aristotle or St. Thomas Aquinas, however much it is indebted to them and their followers for inspiration and arguments. The author discusses the mutual relations of four key moral concepts--the good, virtue, duty, and rights--as well as their application to various issues, including...

Henry Wallace's 1948 Presidential Campaign and the Future of Postwar Liberalism
ISBN: 9781469622088 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the presidential campaign of 1948, Henry Wallace set out to challenge the conventional wisdom of his time, blaming the United States, instead of the Soviet Union, for the Cold War, denouncing the popular Marshall Plan, and calling for an end to segregation. In addition, he argued that domestic fascism--rather than international communism--posed the primary threat to the nation. He even welcomed Communists into his campaign, admiring their commitment to peace. Focusing on what Wallace himself later considered his campaign's most important aspect, the troubled relationship between...

The VP advantage: How running mates influence home state voting in presidential elections
ISBN: 9781784993375 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A widespread perception exists among political commentators, campaign operatives and presidential candidates that vice presidential (VP) running mates can deliver their home state's electoral votes in a presidential election. In recent elections, presidential campaigns have even changed their strategy in response to the perceived VP home state advantage. But is the advantage real? And could it decide a presidential election? In the most comprehensive analysis to date, Devine and Kopko demonstrate that the VP home state advantage is actually highly conditional and rarely decisive in the...
