Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thesis of this original and provocative book is that representative government should be understood as a combination of democratic and undemocratic, aristocratic elements. Professor Manin challenges the conventional view that representative democracy is no more than an indirect form of government by the people, in which citizens elect representatives only because they cannot assemble and govern in person. The argument is developed by examining the historical moments when the present institutional arrangements were chosen from among the then available alternatives. Professor Manin reminds us that while today representative institutions and democracy appear as virtually indistinguishable, when representative government was first established in Europe and America, it was designed in opposition to democracy proper. Drawing on the procedures used in earlier republican systems, from classical Athens to Renaissance Florence, in order to highlight the alternatives that were forsaken, Manin brings to the fore the generally overlooked results of representative mechanisms. These include the elitist aspect of elections and the non-binding character of campaign promises.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How popular democracy has paradoxically eroded trust in political systems worldwide, and how to restore confidence in democratic politics In recent decades, democracies across the world have adopted measures to increase popular involvement in political decisions. Parties have turned to primaries and local caucuses to select candidates; ballot initiatives and referenda allow citizens to enact laws directly; many places now use proportional representation, encouraging smaller, more specific parties rather than two dominant ones.Yet voters keep getting angrier.There is a steady erosion of trust in politicians, parties, and democratic institutions, culminating most recently in major populist victories in the United States, the United Kingdom, and elsewhere. Frances Rosenbluth and Ian Shapiro argue that devolving power to the grass roots is part of the problem. Efforts to decentralize political decision-making have made governments and especially political parties less effective and less able to address constituents’ long-term interests. They argue that to restore confidence in governance, we must restructure our political systems to restore power to the core institution of representative democracy: the political party.

This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Plea for the Introduction of Responsible Government: And the Representation of Capital Into the United States, as Safeguards Against Communism and Disunion Here, Hamilton ascribes the fact that' the Crown had long since ceased to veto bills, not to the fact that the Constitution compelled the Crown to modify its cabinet and its policy to agree with the bill, but to the art with which the Crown succeeded in controlling elections and Parliament. Whether this were true when Hamilton wrote it, or not, it certainly would not be true to-day. To - day, ' if a bill which the government opposes passes the Heuse of Commons, the cabinet must either resign or dissolve the Parliament, and call an election, in which election the people will decide whether to sustain the old cabinet or the bill. If they elect a new house favorable to the old cabinet, then the bill is dropped. If they elect a new house favorable to the bill, then the old cabi net goes out, and a new one, favorable to the bill, goes in; and hence no bill ever passes both houses, so as to reach the Queen for the royal assent, until her cabinet approve it and are ready to advise her to sign it. As Blackstone's Commentaries, written a few years earlier than The Fed eralist, nowhere utter this doctrine, that the Crown must modify its cabinet to agree with the House of Commons, though, in practice, it had for some time been the usage, it is probable that it had not then become a doctrine of the English Constitution, but was regarded as most of the features of the English Constitution in their origin were - as a privilege accorded by the favor and grace of the Crown. Certainly there is nothing in the writings of the framers of our Constitution to indicate that they regarded it as a doctrine of English constitutional law at that time.

Download or read book On Parties, Party Systems and Democracy written by Peter Mair and published by ECPR Press. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 666 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection brings together some of the most significant and influential work by leading comparativist Peter Mair (1951–2011). The selection ranges from considerations on the relevance of concept formation to the study of party systems and party organisations; and from reflections on the democratic legitimacy of the European Union to the future of party democracy. Including frequently cited papers alongside lesser-known work, the writings collected in this volume attest to the broad scope and depth of Mair’s insights into comparative party politics, and the changing realities of party government. As such, they form an important and enduring contribution to the study of politics, and a fitting tribute to an inspirational and much-missed figure in the global political science community. Edited and introduced by Ingrid van Biezen, with an intellectual portrait of Peter Mair by Stefano Bartolini and Hans Daalder.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Responsible Government in the Dominions, Vol. 1 of 3 My obligations to previous writers are, I trust, adequately indicated and by the references in the notes, ex t in the case of the first edition of Todd's classical treatise, Parlia mentary Government in the British Colonies. In this, the first work on the subject, Todd so ably covered the period up to about 1879 that a later writer can add but little. I have, endeavoured, so far as was compatible with adequato treatment of the subject, to deal with the earlier years of the history of responsrbte government in such a. Way as to supplement the information given by Todd. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Responsible Government in the Dominions This book is in the main an expansion of material collected by me in preparation for a lecture on the development of colonial self-government in the nineteenth century, which, at the suggestion of Mr. S. Digby, C.I.E., I delivered before the Royal Society of Arts in January, 1908. Todd's classical treatise, even with the valuable additions made by his son, covers the ground only up to 1893, and, as was pointed out in a recent debate in the House of Assembly in South Australia, politicians of to-day are not likely to accept as valid precedents of the seventies or eighties. Moreover, the last fifteen years have developed in a marked degree the principles of responsible government, and the system, as it now stands, has reached a completeness which renders any advance 011 the same lines hardly possible. The progress of the future must probably considerably modify the fundamental basis of the present scheme. The desire for brevity has led to the omission of the discussion of electoral matters, and to the apparent disregard of conflicting opinions held by authorities of great weight.
