Book Synopsis Revitalizing Electoral Geography by : Jonathan Leib
Download or read book Revitalizing Electoral Geography written by Jonathan Leib and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electoral Geography, the analysis of spatial patterns of voting, is undergoing a renaissance with new methodological advances, theoretical shifts and changes in the political landscape. Integrating new conceptual approaches with a broad array of case studies from the USA, Europe and Asia, this volume examines key questions in electoral geography: How has electoral geography changed since the 1980s when the last wave of works in this sub discipline appeared? In what ways does contemporary scholarship in social theory inform the analysis of elections and their spatial patterns? How has electoral geography been reconfigured by social and technological changes and those that shape the voting process itself? How can the comparative analysis of elections inform the field? In addressing these issues, the volume moves electoral geography beyond its traditional, empiricist focus on the United States to engage with contemporary theoretical developments and to outline the myriad theoretical, conceptual and methodological perspectives and applications that together are ushering in electoral geography's revitalization. The result is a broader, comparative analysis of how elections reflect and in turn shape social and spatial relations.

Book Synopsis Red Fighting Blue by : David A. Hopkins
Download or read book Red Fighting Blue written by David A. Hopkins and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The national electoral map has split into warring regional bastions of Republican red and Democratic blue, producing a deep and enduring partisan divide in American politics. In Red Fighting Blue, David A. Hopkins places the current partisan and electoral era in historical context, explains how the increased salience of social issues since the 1980s has redefined the parties' geographic bases of support, and reveals the critical role that American political institutions play in intermediating between the behavior of citizens and the outcome of public policy-making. The widening geographic gap in voters' partisan preferences, as magnified further by winner-take-all electoral rules, has rendered most of the nation safe territory for either Democratic or Republican candidates in both presidential and congressional elections - with significant consequences for party competition, candidate strategy, and the operation of government.

Book Synopsis Electoral Geography by : Igor Okunev
Download or read book Electoral Geography written by Igor Okunev and published by . This book was released on 2024-08-31 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electoral geography is the study of the spatial dimension of the electoral process. It examines the factors and patterns underlying the long-standing ideological and political splits in society and their territorial differences, as well as the political activity of voters and their voting habits by administrative and territorial unit, constituency and district. The present work conceptualizes and operationalizes the phenomenon of geographic favouritism and spatial disproportionality of electoral and party systems. We use spatial statistical analysis and geoinformation modelling to develop algorithms for assessing the role of space in the electoral behaviour of citizens. This monograph is aimed at researchers in the field of political science, electoral sociology and election law, as well as at political consultants. It can be used as a teaching aid in a specialized university course on electoral geography.

The volume offers an introduction and 11 chapters that examine the run-up to the election, the motivations of Trump supporters, the election results themselves, case studies of the battleground states of Wisconsin and Georgia, and the chaotic aftermath.

Book Synopsis Electoral Geography by : Seema Jalan

Book excerpt: Electoral geography is an emerging field of research which has sprouted as a subfield of political geography. This book unravels potential areas for research in this field in India, explaining the meaning and evolution of electoral geography and presenting a succinct summary of various approaches being adopted by different scholars. It provides guidance on how to carry out research in electoral geography through 'areal-ecological approach.' Major socio-economic determinants in the Indian federal polity are also identified on the basis of a case study pertaining to the north east Rajasthan in terms of Lok Sabha elections in 1991 and 1998, as well as the Assembly elections in 1993 and 1998. The book identifies spatial patterns of electoral support for the Indian National Congress and the Bhartiya Janta Party, as well as the broad nature of socio-economic base of each party.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intended for geography students, professors, and researchers, this publication deals with the process of political redistricting and shows how geographers can help devise plans that are responsible to office-holders, to voters, to legitimate community interests, and to a sense of territorial integrity. There are eight chapters. Chapter 1 examines the territorial basis of redistricting. Chapter 2, focusing on redistricting in the United States, discusses malapportionment and gerrymandering. The third chapter looks at criteria for redistricting, discussing constitutional, geographic, political-geographic, and political criteria. Electoral reform is the focus of chapter 4. Redistricting methods are examined in chapter 5. Chapters 6 and 7 deal with redistricting in the Mississippi legislature and in the State of Washington, respectively. The concluding chapter emphasizes the importance of a sense of community in the drawing of electoral districts. A bibliography is provided. (RM)
