Consent, Dissent, and Patriotism
ISBN: 9780521599610 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book explains why citizens sometimes comply with and sometimes disobey the demands of democratic governments. It argues that citizens are more likely to comply and even give active consent when they perceive government as procedurally fair in both decisionmaking and implementation processes and when they believe other citizens are also doing their share. The author develops her argument by exploring over two hundred years of military service policies in six democratic countries.

Institutions and Social Conflict
ISBN: 9780521421898 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Many of the fundamental questions in social science entail an examination of the role played by social institutions. Why do we have so many social institutions? Why do they take one form in one society and quite different ones in others? In what ways do these institutions originally develop? And when and why do they change? Institutions and Social Conflict addresses these questions in two ways. First it offers a thorough critique of a wide range of theories of institutional change, from the classical accounts of Smith, Hume, Marx and Weber to the contemporary approaches of evolutionary...

Institutions and Ethnic Politics in Africa
ISBN: 9780521541794 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Presenting a theory to explain how politics revolves around one axis of social cleavage instead of another, Daniel Posner examines Zambia, where people identify themselves either as members of one of the country's seventy-three tribes or as members of one of its four principal language groups. Drawing on a simple model of identity choice, Posner demonstrates that the answer depends on whether the country is operating under single-party or multi-party rule, thus revealing how formal institutional rules determine the social cleavages that matter.

Institutions, Institutional Change and Economic Performance
ISBN: 9780521397346 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 159 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Continuing his groundbreaking analysis of economic structures, Douglass North develops an analytical framework for explaining the ways in which institutions and institutional change affect the performance of economies, both at a given time and over time. Institutions exist, he argues, due to the uncertainties involved in human interaction; they are the constraints devised to structure that interaction. Yet, institutions vary widely in their consequences for economic performance; some economies develop institutions that produce growth and development, while others develop institutions that...
