Download or read book Political Analysis written by Colin Hay and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-03-14 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Political Analysis provides an accessible and engaging yet original introduction and distinctive contribution, to the analysis of political structures, institutions, ideas and behaviours, and above all, to the political processes through which they are constantly made and remade. Following an innovative introduction to the main approaches and concepts in political analysis, the text focuses thematically on the key issues which currently concern and divide political analysts, including the boundaries of the political; the question of structure, agency and power; the dynamics of political change; the relative significance of ideas and material factors; and the challenge posed by postmodernism which the author argues the discipline can strengthen itself by addressing without allowing it to become a recipe for paralysis.
Book Synopsis A Framework for Political Analysis by : David Easton
Download or read book A Framework for Political Analysis written by David Easton and published by Englewood Cliffs, N.J : Prentice-Hall. This book was released on 1965 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A framework for political analysis by David Easton develops a method for analyzing the basic processes by which political systems, regardless of generic or specific types, seek to adapt and prevail as systems of behavior in a world of either stability or change. It establishes an organized system of concepts which not only forms an introduction to a behavioral theory of politics, but offers a framework for what can be termed a systems analysis of political life. It represents the first comprehensive statement of a formal framework interpreting politics as a system of social behavior, and as such, offers much valuable material for empirical investigators and theoreticians in the social and political fields. Beginning with an identification of the assumptions from which politics are defined as a system of behavior, this work then proceeds to develop a structure of concepts. Focusing largely on the dynamic aspects of systems, the author examines the kinds of processes characteristic of political systems. He organizes a consistent structure of concepts to fit the kind of system that political life constitutes. This work offers a clear pathway to a general theory of political life, a manner of analysis for understanding the behavior of all kinds of political systems: small or large, developing or traditional, modern or primitive, industrial or agrarian, democratic or totalitarian. It provides a set of categories for research and analysis that can be effectively used by anyone concerned with the study of politics, regardless of specific field - whether public administration, political science, sociology, or anthropology - and as such, forms a contribution of inestimable value to the study of political life" -- Dust jacket.

Book Synopsis The Political Systems of Empires by : Shmuel N. Eisenstadt
Download or read book The Political Systems of Empires written by Shmuel N. Eisenstadt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-31 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the prestigious MacIver Award when it was first published, this remains a towering work of modern political sociology, especially of macrosociology. Its main objective is comparative analysis of political commonalities found in different societies, both historical and present. The book seeks to find some pattern or laws in the structure and development of such systems. The imaginative use of data helps to bring order into what might otherwise be considered a speculative volume. The purpose of The Political Systems of Empires is to apply sociological concepts to the analysis of historical societies through the comparative analysis of a special type of political system. This analysis does not purport to be historical or descriptive. Its main objective is comparative analysis of political commonalities found in different societies. The book seeks to find some pattern or laws in the structure and development of such systems.
Book Synopsis The Constitution as Political Structure by : Martin H. Redish
Download or read book The Constitution as Political Structure written by Martin H. Redish and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1995 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last forty years modern constitutional scholarship has concentrated on an analysis of rights, while principles of constitutional law concerning the structure of government have been largely down-played. The irony of this interpretive emphasis is that the body of the Constitution contains relatively little dealing directly with rights. Rather, it is primarily a blueprint for the establishment of a complex form of federal-democratic structure. The Constitution as Political Structure emphasizes the central role served by the structural portions of the Constitution. Redish argues that these structural values were designed to provide the framework in which our rights-based system may flourish, and that judicial abandonment of these structural values threatens the very foundations of American political theory. In its exposition of the textual and theoretical rationales for judicial enforcement of the structural values embodied in the Constitution, this book presents a principled alternative to the extremes of judicial abdication articulated by certain scholars and Justices on the one hand, and the result-oriented ideological involvement advocated in some quarters on the other. This work will be of great interest to scholars of law and political science.

Book Synopsis The Politics Industry by : Katherine M. Gehl
Download or read book The Politics Industry written by Katherine M. Gehl and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2020-06-23 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading political innovation activist Katherine Gehl and world-renowned business strategist Michael Porter bring fresh perspective, deep scholarship, and a real and actionable solution, Final Five Voting, to the grand challenge of our broken political and democratic system. Final Five Voting has already been adopted in Alaska and is being advanced in states across the country. The truth is, the American political system is working exactly how it is designed to work, and it isn't designed or optimized today to work for us—for ordinary citizens. Most people believe that our political system is a public institution with high-minded principles and impartial rules derived from the Constitution. In reality, it has become a private industry dominated by a textbook duopoly—the Democrats and the Republicans—and plagued and perverted by unhealthy competition between the players. Tragically, it has therefore become incapable of delivering solutions to America's key economic and social challenges. In fact, there's virtually no connection between our political leaders solving problems and getting reelected. In The Politics Industry, business leader and path-breaking political innovator Katherine Gehl and world-renowned business strategist Michael Porter take a radical new approach. They ingeniously apply the tools of business analysis—and Porter's distinctive Five Forces framework—to show how the political system functions just as every other competitive industry does, and how the duopoly has led to the devastating outcomes we see today. Using this competition lens, Gehl and Porter identify the most powerful lever for change—a strategy comprised of a clear set of choices in two key areas: how our elections work and how we make our laws. Their bracing assessment and practical recommendations cut through the endless debate about various proposed fixes, such as term limits and campaign finance reform. The result: true political innovation. The Politics Industry is an original and completely nonpartisan guide that will open your eyes to the true dynamics and profound challenges of the American political system and provide real solutions for reshaping the system for the benefit of all.

Book Synopsis Institutional System Analysis in Political Economy by : Taner Akan
Download or read book Institutional System Analysis in Political Economy written by Taner Akan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The enduring debate on institutional pillars of contemporary political economies has gathered a noticeable momentum in terms of the change, path-dependence, and varieties of capitalism. By taking a methodological standpoint claiming that ’the current structure and the future of contemporary societies can only be understood by using an evolutionary and macro institutional approach that would explain the trajectories of social structures from a systemic perspective’, this book first aims at formulating a novel analytical framework thus, Institutional System Analysis in Political Economy. This framework comprises, inter alia, a model of path-dependent changes, and then attempts to apply it to the case of the Ottoman-Turkish social system. In sum, the book develops an ’interaction-theoretic and evolutionarily-structured approach’ with an aim to better capture the path-dependence and change of political, economic, and cultural action in terms of their intersectional dynamics.
Book Synopsis The Political System of Bosnia and Herzegovina by : Damir Banović
Download or read book The Political System of Bosnia and Herzegovina written by Damir Banović and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-09-12 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an introduction to the basics of Bosnian political structure, institutions, and political processes. Twenty-five years after the Dayton Peace Agreement ended the Bosnian war, the political process still maintains various levels and divisions among political entities. A transitional, post-conflict, divided, multicultural, state-building society, Bosnia and Herzegovina represents a complex and unique political system through which a myriad of topics can be studied. Applying multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary methodologies, the book presents a descriptive analysis and critical evaluation of the various aspects of the political system of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The chapters address various aspects of the political system, such as institutions and state building, the legal system and the post-war constitution, as well as an examination of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s place in the international community and their relationship with European Union and NATO. Providing a holistic view of the development, politics, and policy of this unique state, this book will be ideal for students studying the contemporary history of Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as students and researchers of political science, international relations, and development.

Book Synopsis Analysis of Political Systems by : Douglas V. Verney
Download or read book Analysis of Political Systems written by Douglas V. Verney and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-14 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Analysis of Political Systems Two recent writers in particular have shown me the way towards the type of political analysis which this book favours. The late Mr. T. D. Weldon, especially in his The Vocabulary of Politics, exposed the vagueness of terminology in much theorizing about politics. Professor Maurice Duverger in his Political Parties has shown that the study of political institutions can be analytical as well as descriptive. I should like to thank Professor Edvard Thermaenius of Stockholm for explaining to me that British Cabinet Government is not synonymous with what the Swedes call parliamentarism. I owe a special debt of gratitude to the Commonwealth Fund, New York, for enabling me to study the American type of presidential government at first hand and for introducing me to the interesting work being done in the United States in the field of political behaviour. Several British colleagues were kind enough to give me their comments on portions of the manuscript and numerous students helped me to work out my ideas in lectures and seminars. To all of them, and to Miss Rita Turner who typed out the manuscript, I proffer my thanks. I am especially grateful to Professors Wilfrid Harrison of the University of Liverpool and Manning J. Dauer of the University of Florida for their wise criticisms and helpful advice; and to my wife, Diana, for always insisting that I try to make my meaning as clear as possible.
