Download or read book Electoral Violence Corruption and Political Order written by Sarah Birch and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-07-21 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive look at how violence has been used to manipulate competitive electoral processes around the world since World War II Throughout their history, political elections have been threatened by conflict, and the use of force has in the past several decades been an integral part of electoral processes in a significant number of contemporary states. However, the study of elections has yet to produce a comprehensive account of electoral violence. Drawing on cross-national data sets together with fourteen detailed case studies from around the world, Electoral Violence, Corruption, and Political Order offers a global comparative analysis of violent electoral practices since the Second World War. Sarah Birch shows that the way power is structured in society largely explains why elections are at risk of violence in some contexts but not in others. Countries with high levels of corruption and weak democratic institutions are especially vulnerable to disruptions of electoral peace. She examines how corrupt actors use violence to back up other forms of electoral manipulation, including vote buying and ballot stuffing. In addition to investigating why electoral violence takes place, Birch considers what can be done to prevent it in the future, arguing that electoral authority and the quality of electoral governance are more important than the formal design of electoral institutions. Delving into a deeply influential aspect of political malpractice, Electoral Violence, Corruption, and Political Order explores the circumstances in which individuals choose to employ violence as an electoral strategy.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This evaluation examines UNDP role and contribution to the attainment of electoral results. It seeks to determine the quality and added value of UNDP performance in strengthening electoral systems and processes. It also assesses how well UNDP positioned itself to address growing and changing demands for electoral support, and to address the challenges and opportunities to enhance the goals of democratic governance via strengthening electoral processes. The evaluation covers UNDP work on electoral assistance between 1990 and 2011 with a main focus on the past ten years when UNDP provided electoral assistance in 83 countries with a budget of approximately USD 2.9 billion. It concludes with a set of policy-relevant and forward-looking recommendations. The evaluation will support UNDP's future work by contributing to an understanding of how UNDP can provide assistance in a more effective and sustainable manner.
