Download or read book Presidential Primaries and the Dynamics of Public Choice written by Larry M. Bartels and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-08 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illuminating look at how national political parties nominate presidential candidates This innovative study blends sophisticated statistical analyses, campaign anecdotes, and penetrating political insight to produce a fascinating exploration of one of America's most controversial political institutions—the process by which our major parties nominate candidates for the presidency. Larry Bartels focuses on the nature and impact of "momentum" in the contemporary nominating system. He describes the complex interconnections among primary election results, expectations, and subsequent primary results that have made it possible for candidates like Jimmy Carter, George Bush, and Gary Hart to emerge from relative obscurity into political prominence in nominating campaigns. In the course of his analysis, he addresses questions central to any understanding—or evaluation—of the modern nominating process. How do fundamental political predispositions influence the behavior of primary voters? How quickly does the public learn about new candidates? Under what circumstances will primary success itself generate subsequent primary success? And what are the psychological processes underlying this dynamic tendency? Bartels examines the likely consequences of some proposed alternatives to the nominating process, including a regional primary system and a one-day national primary. Thus the work will be of interest to political activists, would-be reformers, and interested observers of the American political scene, as well as to students of public opinion, voting behavior, the news media, campaigns, and electoral institutions.

This book was released on 2015-04-30 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economists since the First Industrial Revolution have been interested in the links between economic growth and resources, often pointing to resource scarcities as a hindrance to growth. Offering a counter perspective, this volume highlights the positive role that scarcities can play in inducing technical progress and economic growth. It outlines a structural framework for the political economy of scarcity and rents, and offers a novel way of organizing the evidence concerning the role of resources in industrial growth. This book proposes a major shift in the treatment of scarcity issues by focusing on bottlenecks and opportunities arising within the production system, and will appeal to economists and policy makers interested in the role of resources as triggers of structural change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apply design principles to your classes, preparing them for reuse. You will use package design principles to create packages that are just right in terms of cohesion and coupling, and are user- and maintainer-friendly at the same time. The first part of this book walks you through the five SOLID principles that will help you improve the design of your classes. The second part introduces you to the best practices of package design, and covers both package cohesion principles and package coupling principles. Cohesion principles show you which classes should be put together in a package, when to split packages, and if a combination of classes may be considered a "package" in the first place. Package coupling principles help you choose the right dependencies and prevent wrong directions in the dependency graph of your packages. What You'll LearnApply the SOLID principles of class designDetermine if classes belong in the same packageKnow whether it is safe for packages to depend on each other Who This Book Is For Software developers with a broad range of experience in the field, who are looking for ways to reuse,share, and distribute their code

Download or read book How important is Web 2 0 for the tourism sector and how can the industry apply to this trend written by Tim Lellinger and published by diplom.de. This book was released on 2010-11-19 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Introduction: 1.1 The Topic: Aims and Objectives: In the 1990's a revolutionary technological invention, the Internet, paved the way to a much easier and endless expandable way of communication all over the world. But although it was initially seen as a way of private communication, companies realised the potential of the invention and started to use the Internet for matters like distribution, communication, logistics and more. As internationality was one of the biggest advantages of the Internet, especially the tourism sector tried to use the Web for commercial purposes. Starting with Computer Reservation Systems (CRS) and own Websites, the usage transformed to complete e-commerce concepts, offering online-shopping and electronic ticketing. Today, one of the most attractive aspects of the Internet for the tourism branch is the possibility to reach a maximum of potential clients. From 1997 till 2006 the percentage of Internet users increased from 6,5% to 59,5%. By December 2008, over 43 million people in the United Kingdom were using the internet and most of them already used the Web for informing themselves about commercial products. But the study Internet Facts 2006 even shows more potential. Considering the trend, 59,7% of the users plan to book their complete vacation through the Internet, 56,4% plan to use the network for buying airline and train tickets and 52,2% want to book their hotel rooms via Web. Since the creation of the Internet, the commercial situation for suppliers changed more and more from a seller's to a buyer's market. With the help of new technologies and the improved accessibility through easy understandable software, consumers experienced a huge empowerment in the internet. Especially in the tourism sector, this consumer empowerment changed the market completely through more transparency and communication amongst the customers. As, in the near future, the strength of the buyers market will grow even more, suppliers now have to adapt to the new trend to stay competitive and to satisfy the customers. The personal reasons for selecting this topic can be concluded in 3 different facts. Firstly, my last studies in tourism introduced me to the market and the recent developments and therefore showed me the importance of differentiation and of using modern distribution channels. Secondly, my first studies were focused on information technologies and thus showed me current possibilities within Web 2.0 [...]
