Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the problems associated with regulating the funding of political parties and election campaigns in a timely assessment of a topic of great political controversy. From interest in Obama's capacity to raise vast sums of money, to scandals that have rocked UK and Australian governments, party funding is a global issue, reflected in this text with case studies from Australia, Canada, New Zealand, United Kingdom, and the United States. Taking an interdisciplinary approach with leading scholars from politics, geography and law, this text addresses key themes: contributions, spending controls, the role of broadcasters and special interests, and the role of the state in funding political parties. With regulatory measures apparently unable to change the behaviour of parties, why have existing laws failed to satisfy the demands for reform, and what kind of laws are necessary to change the way political parties behave? The Funding of Political Parties: Where Now? brings fresh comparative material to inform this topical and intractable debate, and assesses the wider implications of continuing problems in political funding. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of political science, political theory, policy and law.

Book Synopsis The Funding of Political Parties in Britain by : Keith D. Ewing
Download or read book The Funding of Political Parties in Britain written by Keith D. Ewing and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1987-05-21 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of the way in which political parties are funded examines in detail the corporate funding of the Conservative Party and trade union funding of the Labour Party. In so doing the author considers the legal implications of this activity. The election expenditures of the parties come under scrutiny, as does the role of the state in contributing to their financial well-being. The concluding chapters consider arguments for more extensive public funding of the political parties - as proposed by both the Houghton Committee in 1976 and the Hansard Society in 1981. In considering this issue the author draws heavily on Swedish experience, and throughout the book reference is made, where appropriate, to developments in other jurisdictions, including the United States, Canada and West Germany. This important subject is addressed from a legal perspective, though the book is written in a clear and forthright style accessible to lawyers and non-lawyers alike.

Download or read book Party Finance and Expenditure in the United Kingdom written by Great Britain. Ministry of Justice and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2008 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents the Government's proposals on party funding, which follow the broad approach outlined by Sir Hayden Phillips in his report "Strengthening democracy: fair and sustainable funding of political parties" (2007, ISBN 9780108507113). It also takes account of the Constitutional Affairs Committee report "Party funding: first report of session 2006-07" (HC 163-I, ISBN 9780215031853) and the Committee on Standards in Public Life's (CSPL) "Review of the Electoral Commission" (Cm. 7006, ISBN 9780101700627). The Government proposes: to clarify the Electoral Commission's role as an effective regulator of party funding and campaign expenditure; to provide it with a widened range of sanctions and investigatory powers and to change the various bars and rules on the appointment of Commissioners and recruitment of staff if they have recently been involved in political activity; to increase the number of Commissioners to ten. The Government also agrees with the CSPL recommendation that responsibility for setting electoral boundaries should be removed from the Commission and the Boundary Committee for England should become an independent body. It is widely agreed that perceived 'excessive' spending by political parties is a cause of public concern, and the Government will update and broaden the definition of campaign spending, and aim for the agreement of all parties based on Sir Hayden's package of proposals for comprehensive spending limits. The paper also reviews the case for a donation cap and public funding of political parties. A cap of £50,000 had been suggested by Sir Hayden, but the Government believes a lower limit would be appropriate. Greater transparency on donations is essential. On public funding, the Government acknowledges the wide differences of opinion on how best to achieve reform, and does not intend to legislate until some consensus is reached with all parties.

Book Synopsis The Cost of Democracy by : K D Ewing
Download or read book The Cost of Democracy written by K D Ewing and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2007-03-09 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Party funding has given rise to great controversy since 1997, and continues to do so. In recent years, row has followed row - from million-pound donations, to the so-called 'loans for peerages' affair. The question was the subject of an official investigation by Sir Hayden Phillips, whose blueprint for reform was produced in March 2007. This book charts the evolution of the party funding problem in recent years and explores the weaknesses of the Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000, which was enacted in a vain attempt to clean up British politics. The book sets out a number of core principles which should inform the development of public policy in this field, and examines the different strategies for the implementation of these principles. Having regard to the experience of othercountries, including Canada, Germany and Sweden, a radical framework ofreform is proposed, designed to address the emerging crisis of party government with serious implications for democracy itself. The main concern is with the development of bold reform initiatives to encourage political parties to recruit and retain members, and give members rights in relation to the government and administration of these parties. This thoughtful yet hard-hitting account by one of the leading scholars in the field will be of interest to constitutional lawyers and political scientists, as well as journalists and those with an interest in the way we are governed.
