Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The major themes explored in this book, originally published in 1986, are the political resonances of social stratification and change; the growing distance between the working class and the providers of social services; and the role of locality in social reproduction. The relationship between society and space is the subject of a major debate in developed countries. The key questions are about just how far spatial patterns and local conditions affect social relations and stratification and how far they shape collective action, electoral responses and class.

Book Synopsis Place and Politics by : John A. Agnew
Download or read book Place and Politics written by John A. Agnew and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-03 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first part of the book is concerned with developing the place perspective. Three dimensions of place are put forward: locale and sense of place describe the objective and subjective dimensions of local social arrangements within which political behaviour is realized; location refers to the impact of the ‘macro-order’, to the fact that a single place is one among many and that the social life of a place is embedded in theworkings of the state and the world economy. The second part of the book provides detailed examinations of American and Scottish politics, using the place perspective. Contrary to the view that place or locality is important only in ‘traditional societies’, this book argues that place is of continuing significance in even the most ‘advanced’ societies.

Book Synopsis The Politics of Location by : Andrew Kirby
Download or read book The Politics of Location written by Andrew Kirby and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, originally published in 1982, begins with an examination of space, and its role in the process of public provision and collective consumption. Variations in provision are linked to the Weberian notion of social status and political struggles over consumption and externality issues. Health care and education are considered in spatial contexts, and the whole basis of the electoral system is also discussed together with geographic underpinnings. In each case emphasis is placed on the jurisdictional organization of space by public bodies. The author examines the various examples of spatial cleavages, in which political events are redirected by issues such as nuclear power, airport location, road construction and urban renewal.

Book Synopsis Money and Votes (Routledge Library Editions: Political Geography) by : Ron Johnston
Download or read book Money and Votes (Routledge Library Editions: Political Geography) written by Ron Johnston and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-03 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is the election result in a constituency affected by the amount of campaign spending there? This book, originally published in 1987 was the first major study of this important question. Based on extensive original research, it addresses two main issues: the impact of constituency campaign spending on election results in Britain: and the question of how that impact changes with the level of spending. The author develops a framework for analysing spending and its impact based upon American analyses of campaign expenditures, and focusses on general election results from 1950-83. Consideration is also given to minor parties and to both local and European elections.
