Sacred and Secular
ISBN: 9781107011281 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Seminal nineteenth-century thinkers predicted that religion would gradually fade in importance with the emergence of industrial society. The belief that religion was dying became the conventional wisdom in the social sciences during most of the twentieth century. The traditional secularization thesis needs updating, however, religion has not disappeared and is unlikely to do so. Nevertheless, the concept of secularization captures an important part of what is going on. This book develops a theory of existential security. It demonstrates that the publics of virtually all advanced industrial...

Why American Elections Are Flawed (and How to Fix Them)
ISBN: 9781501713408 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The flaws in the American electoral process have become increasingly apparent in recent years. The contemporary tipping point in public awareness occurred during the 2000 election count, and concern deepened due to several major problems observed in the 2016 campaign, worsening party polarization, and corroding public trust in the legitimacy of the outcome. To gather evidence about the quality of elections around the world, in 2012 the Electoral Integrity Project (EIP) was established as an independent research project based at Harvard and Sydney universities. The results show that... The flaws in the American electoral process have become increasingly apparent in recent years. The contemporary tipping point in public awareness o... |

ISBN: 9780521469616 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Pippa Norris and Joni Lovenduski ask why some politicians succeed in moving into the highest offices of state, while others fail. They examine the relative dearth of women, black and working class Members of Parliament, and whether this evident social bias matters for political representation. The authors draw evidence from the first systematic surveys of parliamentary candidates, Members of Parliament and party selectors, as well as detailed personal interviews. The study explores how and why people become politicians, and the consequences for parties, legislatures and representative...

Democratic Deficit: Critical Citizens Revisited
ISBN: 9780521127448 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Many fear that democracies are suffering from a legitimacy crisis. This book focuses on democratic deficits, reflecting how far the perceived democratic performance of any state diverges from public expectations.

The book diagnoses the reasons behind the democratic deficit, including demand (rising public aspirations for democracy),...

A Virtuous Circle: Political Communications in Postindustrial Societies
ISBN: 9780521793643 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 420 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Is the process of political communications by the news media and by parties responsible for civic malaise? A Virtuous Circle sets out to challenge the conventional wisdom that it is. Based on a comparative examination of the role of the news media and parties in postindustrial societies, this study argues that rather than mistakenly "blaming the messenger" we need to understand and confront more deep-rooted flaws in the systems of representative democracy.

Making Democratic Governance Work: How Regimes Shape Prosperity, Welfare, and Peace
ISBN: 9781107016996 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book focuses on three core questions. Is democratic governance good for economic prosperity? Has this type of regime accelerated progress toward achieving the Millennium Development Goals, social welfare, and human development? Does it generate a peace-dividend and reduce conflict at home? Despite the importance of understanding these questions and the vast research literature generated, remarkably little consensus has emerged about any of these issues. Within the international community, democracy and governance are widely advocated as intrinsically desirable and important goals....

Electoral Change Since 1945
ISBN: 9780631167167 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book explores the nature of electoral change in Britain during the last half century. The period from 1945-70 was the classic era of two-party dominance at every level of British politics: at Westminster, county hall, and in the electorate. Since the early seventies Conservative and Labour hegemony has remained virtually unaltered in Parliament, but their grip has been loosened in local government, and the popular foundations of the two-party system have been eroded among voters.
Why has Britain evolved from a dominant to a declining two-party system during the last fifty... This book explores the nature of electoral change in Britain during the last half century. The period from 1945-70 was the classic era of two-party do...

ISBN: 9780521694803 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Proposals for power-sharing constitutions remain controversial, as highlighted by current debates in Iraq, Afghanistan, Nepal, and Sudan. This book updates and refines the theory of consociationalism, taking account of the flood of contemporary innovations in power-sharing institutions that have occurred worldwide. The book classifies and compares four types of political institutions: the electoral system, parliamentary or presidential executives, unitary or federal states, and the structure and independence of the mass media. The study tests the potential advantages and disadvantages of each...

Why Elections Fail
ISBN: 9781107679023 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Unfortunately too often elections around the globe are deeply flawed or even fail. What triggers these problems? In this second volume of her trilogy on electoral integrity, Pippa Norris compares structural, international, and institutional accounts as alternative perspectives to explain why elections fail to meet international standards. The book argues that rules preventing political actors from manipulating electoral governance are needed to secure integrity, although at the same time officials also need sufficient resources and capacities to manage elections effectively. Drawing on new...

Framing Terrorism: The News Media, the Government and the Public
ISBN: 9780415947183 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 338 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Terrorism now dominates the headlines across the world-from New York to Kabul. Framing Terrorism argues that the headlines matter as much as the act, in political terms. Widely publicized terrorist incidents leave an imprint upon public opinion, muzzle the "watchdog" role of journalists and promote a general one-of-us consensus supporting security forces.

Why Electoral Integrity Matters
ISBN: 9781107684706 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is the first in a planned trilogy by Pippa Norris on challenges of electoral integrity to be published by Cambridge University Press. Unfortunately too often elections around the globe are deeply flawed or even fail. Why does this matter? It is widely suspected that such contests will undermine confidence in elected authorities, damage voting turnout, trigger protests, exacerbate conflict, and occasionally lead to regime change. Well-run elections, by themselves, are insufficient for successful transitions to democracy. But flawed, or even failed, contests are thought to wreck...

Democratic Phoenix: Reinventing Political Activism
ISBN: 9780521010535 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Conventional wisdom suggests that citizens in many countries have become disengaged from traditional political participation. Commentators highlight warning signs of sagging electoral turnout, rising anti-party sentiment, and the decay of civic organizations. But are these concerns justified? This book compares systematic evidence in nearly two hundred countries worldwide and suggests reasons for questioning assumptions of decline. Not only is the obituary for older forms of political activism premature, but new forms of modern civic engagement may be emerging.
