Download or read book The Politics of Linkage written by Brian Bow and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do Canada and the United States share a special relationship, or is this just a face-saving myth, masking dependency and domination? The Politics of Linkage cuts through the rhetoric that clouds this debate by offering detailed accounts of four major bilateral disputes. It shows that the United States has not made coercive linkages between issues. In the early Cold War years, the exercise of American power over Canada was held in check by a genuinely special diplomatic culture but since then has been held back only by interest groups and institutions. This revisionist account of Canada-US relations is essential reading for anyone interested in Canadian politics, American foreign policy, or international diplomacy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its release in 1980, Kay Lawson's Political Parties and Linkage: A Comparative Perspective has become a classic text in the field of political science. In her groundbreaking work Lawson approaches linkage from an angle left unexplored by her predecessors. Her thinking filled in the systematic and theoretical void by envisioning political parties as the link between citizens and policy makers. This collection of essays by leading political scientists reflects on Lawson's concept of linkage, its theory, and its application over the last quarter century. The work is divided into two sections, the first covers linkage's impact on party research and the second focuses on its application in general political science. The first looks at such topics as the evolution and intellectual development of Lawson's concept through social actors, policy responsiveness, and multi-layer politics. The second handles issues like globalization, the relation of state and society, the European Union and it's proposed constitutional reform, and the cross-cultural significance of linkage in such countries as India. The book concludes with an illuminating chapter by Lawson that responds to the featured themes and explains her current views on linkage and democracy.

Download or read book Party Voter Linkage in Africa written by Anja Osei and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-03-11 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parties in Africa are often described as organisationally and programmatically weak. On the other hand, they mobilise substantial numbers of voters at election time. This contradiction provokes an interesting question: How do political parties in Africa relate to the society? How do they mobilise their voters and sympathisers, and which strategies do they employ? Anja Osei analyses how parties in Ghana and Senegal adapt to their local context by employing locally embedded strategies.

Download or read book Linkage Politics in Sino American Relations written by Fangfei Zhao and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A common phenomenon that exists in any complex relationship between two countries is "linkage" across different policy issues. Linkage means to establish a relationship making progress in one area dependent on, or affecting progress in another area between the two countries. This thesis explores how linkage has evolved in the U.S.-China relationship across three different issue areas: currency, trade, and investment. The thesis argues that, as China's economy has grown more quickly relative to the United States economy, China has gained advantages in bargaining with the United States. Unlike linkage politics of the 1980s and 1990s, more recently, the United States has been less able to put the same pressure on China that it used to because China has been able to minimize linkages across different areas. In particular, China's participation in multilateral governance arrangements such as the World Trade Organization (WTO) shields it from direct pressure in the Sino-American bilateral relationship. In contrast, China has been able to make use of American vulnerabilities, particularly those arising from America's trade and budget deficits, to deflect pressure to make concessions on trade, investment, and currency issues. These three areas not only link with each other but also have linkage with some other non-economic areas in Sino-American relations.

Download or read book Rivalry and Reform written by Sidney M. Milkis and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2019-01-25 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few relationships have proved more pivotal in changing the course of American politics than those between presidents and social movements. For all their differences, both presidents and social movements are driven by a desire to recast the political system, often pursuing rival agendas that set them on a collision course. Even when their interests converge, these two actors often compete to control the timing and conditions of political change. During rare historical moments, however, presidents and social movements forged partnerships that profoundly recast American politics. Rivalry and Reform explores the relationship between presidents and social movements throughout history and into the present day, revealing the patterns that emerge from the epic battles and uneasy partnerships that have profoundly shaped reform. Through a series of case studies, including Abraham Lincoln and abolitionism, Lyndon Johnson and the civil rights movement, and Ronald Reagan and the religious right, Sidney M. Milkis and Daniel J. Tichenor argue persuasively that major political change usually reflects neither a top-down nor bottom-up strategy but a crucial interplay between the two. Savvy leaders, the authors show, use social movements to support their policy goals. At the same time, the most successful social movements target the president as either a source of powerful support or the center of opposition. The book concludes with a consideration of Barack Obama’s approach to contemporary social movements such as Black Lives Matter, United We Dream, and Marriage Equality.
