How Congress Evolves: Social Bases of Institutional Change
ISBN: 9780195161953 / Angielski / Twarda / 257 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. From the end of the New Deal until quite recently, the U.S. House of Representatives was dominated by a conservative coalition that thwarted the Democratic majority and prevented the enactment of measures proposed by a succession of liberal Presidents.

How Congress Evolves: Social Bases of Institutional Change
ISBN: 9780195182965 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this greatly entertaining tale of one of our most august institutions, Nelson Polsby argues that among other things, from the 50's to the 90's, Congress evolved. In short, Polsby argues that air conditioning altered the demography of the southern states, which in turn changed the political parties of the South, which transformed the composition and in due course the performance of the US House of Representatives. This evolutionary process led to the House's liberalization and later to its transformation into an arena of sharp partisanship, visible among both Democrats and Republicans....

ISBN: 9780199274611 / Angielski / Twarda / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

At that time Stalin called the parties of the Comintern to oppose the Germans by issuing the call for national liberation. This policy...

Transitions to Democracy
ISBN: 9780231115919 / Angielski / Miękka / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Rustow's clairvoyant article "Transitions to Democracy: Toward a Dynamic Model" questioned the conflation of the primary causes and sustaining conditions of democracy and democratization.
