Context and Circumstance : The Turkish Military and Politics
ISBN: 9780198509714 / Angielski / Miękka / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. Debates about military influence on civilian government tend to be partisan and rarely pay sufficient attention to specific contexts. This paper analyses, without condemnation or justification, why and how the military exercises such influence in Turkey and whether it is likely to continue to do so. It argues that the role of the military in Turkey grows out of a specific Turkish context and is more a symptom than a cause of the country's flawed democracy. It examines the Turkish officer ethos, particularly the role of the indigenous ideology of Kemalism, and the broad, though not...

Social Democracy Inside Out : Partisanship and Labor Market Policy in Advanced Industrialized Democracies
ISBN: 9780199216352 / Angielski / Twarda / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The analysis in this book disputes entrenched interpretations of the comparative political economy of industrialized democracies. It questions, in particular, the widely-held assumption that social democratic governments will defend the interests of labor. The evidence shows that labor has become split into two clearly differentiated constituencies: those with secure employment (insiders) and those without (outsiders). The book focuses on three policy areas: employment protection (representing the main concern of insiders), and active and passive labor market policies (the main concern of...

The Presidentialization of Politics : A Comparative Study of Modern Democracies
ISBN: 9780199218493 / Angielski / Miękka / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-20 dni roboczych. The Presidentialization of Politics shows that the politics of democratic societies is moving towards a presidentialized working mode, even in the absence of formal institutional changes. These developments can be explained by a combination of long-term structural changes in modern politics and societies' contingent factors which fluctuate over time. While these contingent, short-term factors relate to the personalities of office holders, the overall political agenda, and the majority situation in parliament, there are several structural factors which are relatively uniform across modern...

Democratic Representation in Europe: Diversity, Change and Convergence explores representation as a core element of democracies in the modern era. Over the past 150 years parliamentary representation has developed into a main link between polity and society, and parliamentary representatives have come to form the nucleus of political elites. The twenty authors of the 16 chapters follow a comparative and empirical approach by exploiting the unique longitudinal data-base of the EURELITE project, which has gathered standardized evidence about the structures of parliamentary representation in 11...

International Democracy and the West : The Roles of Governments, Civil Society, and Multinational Business
ISBN: 9780199274468 / Angielski / Twarda / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book adds to debates over the international dimensions of democratic change by studying the policies and actions of three sets of Western actors: namely, governments, multinational companies, and international NGOs. This actor-based triangular approach responds to observations that the strategic, economic, and social aspects of international democracy have rarely been studied in a combined, holistic fashion. During the 1990s, Western governments, multinational companies, and civil society organizations all came to engage more notably in debates over democratic trends. But were they...
