Abstract:

AbstractThe common assumption of legislative politics is that the majority party structures procedural rules to suit its interests. In a presidentialized context, however, presidential electoral incentives prevail over majority party's incentives when voting on procedural rules changes and the threat of punishing majority-party defectors is not credible when those defectors vote with the presidential candidate. To test these claims, I analyze the case of the procedural reform in the South Korean National Assembly. The case study reveals that 1) the leading presidential candidate of the ruling

Abstract:

As an essential feature of a healthy democracy, general elections have been conducted in India at regular intervals since the first general election, which took place on 13 May 1952, after the adoption of the Constitution. Though political participation and various political processes are the ongoing activities in a polity, the elections are undoubtedly the most notable and visible exercises in a democracy. The process of colonization had exploited the <em>Indianness</em> inbuilt in the political-social conscience of the nation in a variety of ways, but this had also become a medium to witness

Abstract:

AbstractIn the course of arguing his case for electoral reform, John Stuart Mill proposes a criterion of government by majority which has gone largely unnoticed. Mill holds that any majority coalition of representatives in an assembly mustdirectlyrepresent a majority of electors. A representative directly represents those electors, and only those electors, who voted in his favour at his election. An implication of Mill's version of the principle of majority rule is that, given an assembly of any considerable size, all but a small fraction of the electorate must have direct representation.

Abstract:

According to Paragraph 3 of Article 24 of the French 1958 Constitution, the Senate represents the Republic's local and regional authorities. This constitutional provision determines the way in which the Senate is appointed : elected by an electoral college in which local councillors are in a majority, the French Upper House is indirectly based on universal suffrage, thus paying due respect to the principle of the sovereignty of the people. At the same time, the particular way in which the Senate is selected ensures that it is composed of members representing different parts of the body politic

Inspired by critiques of controlled elections under “single-party rule,” this dissertation explores the performance, implications and potentials of China’s village elections. It first reviews the most important studies on the progress of China’s grassroots democracy and then analyzes the social-political background of village self-management which to date has been neglected in the academic literature. Based on empirical studies conducted in Sichuan, this dissertation investigates the roles and attitudes of various participatory groups in village elections and in the course of electoral reforms

AbstractDespite a stronger legal basis and gradual organizational development, Europarties remain primarily transnational partisan actors dependent on their national member parties. The concluding chapter argues that it is precisely this transnational character that makes Europarties so elusive: they operate simultaneously at intergovernmental and supranational levels of decision-making, and measuring their impact is inherently difficult. Europarties are likely to remain in the background without institutional reforms to the electoral system or the institutional set-up of the EU, but they cont

The adoption of universal franchise by the Constituent Assembly of India in November 1949, established political equality in a single moment of rupture.

This chapter examines the connection between electoral politics and policymaking. It shows that in Kenya the imperative of courting voters from multiple ethnic groups during elections creates an incentive for politicians to propose—and adopt—universal policies that distribute benefits widely. To illustrate the electoral value of universal policies, this chapter examines reforms in Kenya’s education sector. Since the return to multiparty politics, presidential aspirants have made education reform central to their electoral appeals, and successive leaders have implemented a number of reforms—mos

In this period the lead was being held by the National Liberal Party, which at the beginning of the century co-opted the young socialists to strengthen itself.

Following the proclamation of the Republic in 1923, new parties started to be formed, but experiments with a multi-party system were soon abandoned in favour of a one-party system.
