Download or read book The Canadian Party System written by Richard Johnston and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2017-09-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Canadian party system is a deviant case among the Anglo-American democracies. Unruly and inscrutable, it is a system that defies logic and classification – until now. In this political science tour de force, Richard Johnston makes sense of the Canadian party system. With a keen eye for history and deft use of recently developed analytic tools, he articulates a series of propositions that underpin the system. For its combination of historical breadth and data-intensive rigour, The Canadian Party System is a rare achievement. Its findings shed light on the main puzzles of the Canadian case, while contesting the received wisdom of the comparative study of parties, elections, and electoral systems elsewhere.

Download or read book The Canadian Federal Election of 2019 written by Jon H. Pammett and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2020-12-17 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Canadian federal election of 2019 is extensively analyzed in this collaborative volume edited by Jon Pammett and Christopher Dornan. Bringing together leading political scientists and media scholars, the book examines the strategies, successes, and failures of each of Canada's major political parties, with special attention given to the pressing question of climate change. In Canadian elections, the context of the campaign is vital. Here, contributors consider in detail the way public opinion polls were reported leading up to the election, how traditional media portrayed events, why the electorate waited to make up their minds, and the means by which social media dealt with fears of a disinformation wave. The book uses data to identify the important factors in determining the voting behaviour of Canadians in 2019 and the ways these factors combined to produce a minority Liberal government. The Canadian Federal Election of 2019 is the essential resource for every interested political observer wanting to dissect the last election and required reading to prepare for the next one.
Download or read book Making Political Choices written by Harold D. Clarke and published by University of Toronto PressHigher education. This book was released on 2009 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent national elections in Canada and the United States have been exciting, consequential contests. In 2006, the Conservative Party of Canada won a fragile victory, replacing a scandal-ridden Liberal government. In the prior 2004 federal election, the Liberals had narrowly clung to power after a volatile and bitter battle with the new Conservative Party. In the 2000 American presidential election, Republican candidate George W. Bush became the first candidate in over 100 years to capture the presidency without a majority popular vote. In 2004, Bush finally attained a narrow popular mandate, but only after a hard fought campaign. Then, in 2006, the Republicans suffered a stunning reversal of political fortune, losing control of both Houses of Congress, as public opinion turned massively against the President. In Making Political Choices: Canada and the United States, Harold Clarke, Allan Kornberg, and Thomas Scotto employ a wealth of new survey data to describe these elections and evaluate competing theories of party support and voter turnout. While examining various arguments about forces affecting political participation and party support, the authors contend that a valence politics model provides a powerful explanation of voting behaviour in Canada, the United States, and other mature democracies. Harold D. Clarke is the Ashbel Smith Professor of Political Science, University of Texas at Dallas, and Adjunct Professor of Government at the University of Essex. He is the author of numerous books and articles, including A Polity on the Edge: Canada and the Politics of Fragmentation with Allan Kornberg and Peter Wearing (Broadview, 2000) and Political Choice in Britain withDavid Sanders, Marianne C. Stewart, and Paul Whiteley (Oxford University Press, 2004). Allan Kornberg is the Norb F. Schaefer Professor of Political Science at Duke University. He is the author of Citizens and Community: Political Support in a Representative Democracy with Harold Clarke (Cambridge University Press, 1992) and has written widely in books and journals on political parties, legislatures, and comparative political behaviour. Thomas J. Scotto is Lecturer in the Department of Government at the University of Essex. His research interests are in American and Canadian electoral behaviour and public opinion and he has published articles in journals such as Electoral Studies and the Journal of Politics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Freedom in the World, the Freedom House flagship survey whose findings have been published annually since 1972, is the standard-setting comparative assessment of global political rights and civil liberties. The survey ratings and narrative reports on 192 countries and a group of select territories are used by policy makers, the media, international corporations, and civic activists and human rights defenders to monitor trends in democracy and track improvements and setbacks in freedom worldwide. Press accounts of the survey findings appear in hundreds of influential newspapers in the United States and abroad and form the basis of numerous radio and television reports. The Freedom in the World political rights and civil liberties ratings are determined through a multi-layered process of research and evaluation by a team of regional analysts and eminent scholars. The analysts used a broad range of sources of information, including foreign and domestic news reports, academic studies, nongovernmental organizations, think tanks, individual professional contacts, and visits to the region, in conducting their research. The methodology of the survey is derived in large measure from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and these standards are applied to all countries and territories, irrespective of geographical location, ethnic or religious composition, or level of economic development.
