After the Social Democrats regained power in the majority of West European countries during the second half of the 1990s, the debate about the decline of Social Democracy, initiated only a few years earlier, increasingly seemed to be obsolete. However, the road to power by the Social Democrats was accompanied by a programmatic debate, which culminated in the “Third Way”. This article analyses the programmatic development in four West European countries and tries to empirically answer the question, whether we can characterize the recent development as a new beginning or the end for Social Democracy. Social and economic policies are at the centre of the analysis, since these policy areas have been at the core for the development of the “parties matter thesis” in the past. The analysis shows that the current or “new” Social Democracy clearly deviates from the “old” programmatically. However, this programmatic reorientation does not constitute a unique Social Democratic reform program, but moreover an acceptance of the central position of Christian Democracy. Therefore, the original “parties matter thesis” seems to lose some of its explanatory power. 相似文献

Microislands are not a hot spot of comparative government studies. Without good reasons. Surely, from a political perspective Microislands are not of great importance. But such an argument should not prevent researchers from taking a closer look at Microislands. Because they are perfectly designed to broaden our knowledge of the circumstances under which democracies occur and survive. In this paper three assumptions, taken from the rare literature on Microislands, are tested: territorial space, homogeneity and insularity. It can be shown that the geographical as well as the geopolitical position of Caribbean and south pacific microislands posses a high explanatory power for the question why those states are stable democracies. 相似文献

Abstract. The Ombudsman represents a recent and interesting example of the transfer of political institutions across cultural boundaries. The Ombudsman was established in Alberta both as an attempt to assist the consumer of government services in coping with an increasingly complex bureaucracy and as a legislative auxiliary for controlling bureaucracy. The degree to which the Ombudsman is accepted or rejected by the public service is an important variable in measuring the success of the transfer. The usefulness of the Ombudsman as an innovation in the field of citizen-government relations depends to a considerable extent on the impact which the Ombudsman has on the provincial bureaucracy. Other than correcting a relatively small number of cases of maladministration, does the Ombudsman contribute to improving public administration? Are there dysfunctional consequences (e.g. hidden costs) in imposing yet another control agency on bureaucracy? How does the presence of the Ombudsman affect the behaviour of officials? In this article the author analyses part of the data from an extensive survey of a representative sample of the Alberta public service concerning officials' perception of and attitudes towards the Ombudsman. Several diverse attitude measures show that in the aggregate the provincial public service has a remarkably positive attitude towards the Ombudsman. Several variables are considered in search of an explanation for this attitude structure. The findings allow predictions about officials' behaviour in official-client interactions, which are also tested against direct and indirect data on behaviour obtained in the survey. Sommaire. Le Protecteur du citoyen (‘Ombudsman’) constitue un exemple particulièrement intéressant illustrant bien la tendance récente à transposer des institutions politiques au dela des frontières culturelles. Le poste de Protecteur du citoyen a été créé en Alberta dans le but d'assister le consommateur de services des administrations publiques dans ses relations avec une bureaucratie de plus en plus complexe, et d'exercer une fonction d'auxiliaire législatif capable de contrôler cette bureaucratie. Le mesure dans laquelle le Protecteur du citoyen est accepté ou rejeté par la fonction publique constitue une variable importante permettant de mesurer le succès de l'institution. L'utilité du Protecteur du citoyen considéré comme phénomène nouveau apparu dans le contexte des relations entre les citoyens et les pouvoirs publics dépend dans une large mesure de l'influence qu'il exerce sur la bureaucratie provinciale. Abstraction faite des mesures correctives apportées à un nombre relativement réduit d'erreurs et de lacunes administratives, le Protecteur du citoyen contribue-t-il à améliorer la qualité de l'administration publique? Faut-il craindre que l'imposition d'un nouvel organe de contrôle à la bureaucratic n'engendre des consequences liées à des troubles fonctionnels (par exemple des coûts non apparents)? Comment la présence du Protecteur du citoyen affecte-t-elle le comportement des fonctionnaires? Dans cet article, l'auteur analyse une partie des données recueillies dans le cadre d'une analyse détaillée d'un échantillon représentatif de la fonction publique en Alberta effectuée pour déterminer l'idée que les fonctionnaires se font du Protecteur du citoyen, et kurs attitudes à son égard. Diverses evaluations des attitudes indiquent que, dans l'ensemble, la fonction publique provinciale se distingue par une attitude extrêmement positive vis-à-vis du Protecteur du citoyen. L'auteur examine plusieurs variables pour essayer d'expliquer pourquoi cette attitude est structurée de la sorte. Les conclusions permettent de formuler des prévisions au sujet du comportement des fonctionnaires au niveau des contacts fonctionnaire-client, lesquels font également l'objet d'une analyse comparative faisant intervenir des données directes et indirectes sur le comportement obtenues dans le cadre de l'étude. 相似文献

This essay argues that the central concept for analysis of agrarian social relations is the form of production. This is conceived through a double specification of the unit of production and the social formation. The approach allows for the analytical specification of simple commodity production and capitalist relations of production in a manner consistent with the development of new concepts within political economy for agrarian structures which do not correspond to modes of production. The latter have generally been referred to as ‘peasant’, a term derived through empirical generalisation and resting on a (usually) implicit contrast with simple commodity production. The contrast can be made more rigorous through the concept of commoditisation, defined as the penetration into reproduction of commodity relations. Simple commodity production is a concept within political economy, allowing for deduction of conditions of reproduction and class relations. ‘Peasant production is negatively defined as resisting commoditisation, and nothing can be deduced about reproduction or class relations. ‘Peasant’ must be replaced ty a comprehensive and mutually exclusive set of rigorously defined concepts specifying forms of production. Procedures for defining such forms of production are suggested. 相似文献
