Download or read book Drafting Legislation written by Helen Xanthaki and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-16 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book constitutes the first thorough academic analysis of legislative drafting. By placing the study of legislation and its principles within the paradigm of Flyvberg's phronetic social sciences, it offers a novel approach which breaks the tradition of unimaginative past descriptive reiterations of drafting conventions. Instead of prescribing rules for legislation, it sets out to identify efficacy as the main aim of the actors in the policy, legislative and drafting processes, and effectiveness as the main goal in the drafting of legislation. Through the prism of effectiveness as synonymous with legislative quality, the book explores the stages of the drafting process; guides the reader through structure and sections in their logical sequence, and introduces rules for drafting preliminary, substantive and final provisions. Special provisions, comparative legislative drafting and training for drafters complete this thorough analysis of the drafting of legislation as a tool for regulation. Instead of teaching the reader which drafting rules prevail, the book explores the reasons why drafting rules have come about, thus encouraging readers to understand what goal is served by each rule and how each rule applies. The book is aimed at academics and practitioners who draft or use statutory law in the common or civil law traditions.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1945, turnout for general elections in the UK has fallen from a high of 83.9% in 1950 to a low of 59.4% in 2001. Turnout for the 2010 general election was 65.1% higher than the previous two general elections, but still the third lowest since the introduction of universal suffrage. Turnout at the last general election was also low compared with turnout at the last parliamentary elections in other European Union countries. There is also evidence that a significant number of people in the UK are not registered to vote, with the most recent estimates indicating that the electoral register was between 85 and 87% complete. This would mean that approximately 6.5 million people are missing from the electoral register. In light of this, the Political and Constitutional Reform Committee agreed to conduct an inquiry into voter registration and turnout in the UK.

Download or read book Comparative Electoral Management written by Toby S. James and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-04 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers the first comparative monograph on the management of elections. The book defines electoral management as a new, inter-disciplinary area and advances a realist sociological approach to study it. A series of new, original frameworks are introduced, including the PROSeS framework, which can be used by academics and practitioners around the world to evaluate electoral management quality. A networked governance approach is also introduced to understand the full range of collaborative actors involved in delivering elections, including civil society and the international community. Finally, the book evaluates some of the policy instruments used to improve the integrity of elections, including voter registration reform, training and the funding of elections. Extensive mixed methods are used throughout including thematic analysis of interviews, (auto-)ethnography, comparative historical analysis and, cross-national and national surveys of electoral officials. This text will be of key interest to scholars, students and practitioners interested and involved in electoral integrity and elections, and more broadly to comparative politics, public administration, international relations and democracy studies.

Download or read book The Anthropology of Parliaments written by Emma Crewe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-13 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Anthropology of Parliaments offers a fresh, comparative approach to analysing parliaments and democratic politics, drawing together rare ethnographic work by anthropologists and politics scholars from around the world. Crewe’s insights deepen our understanding of the complexity of political institutions. She reveals how elected politicians navigate relationships by forging alliances and thwarting opponents; how parliamentary buildings are constructed as sites of work, debate and the nation in miniature; and how politicians and officials engage with hierarchies, continuity and change. This book also proposes how to study parliaments through an anthropological lens while in conversation with other disciplines. The dive into ethnographies from across Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, the Middle East and the Pacific Region demolishes hackneyed geo-political categories and culminates in a new comparative theory about the contradictions in everyday political work. This important book will be of interest to anyone studying parliaments but especially those in the disciplines of anthropology and sociology; politics, legal and development studies; and international relations.
Download or read book The Scottish Political System Since Devolution written by Paul Cairney and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2012-01-30 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a narrative of Scottish politics since devolution in 1999. It compares eight years of coalition government under Scottish Labour and the Scottish Liberal Democrats with four years of Scottish National Party minority government. It outlines the relative effect of each government on Scottish politics and public policy in various contexts, including: high expectations for ‘new politics' that were never fully realised; the influence of, and reactions from, the media and public; the role of political parties; the Scottish Government's relations with the UK Government, EU institutions, local government, quasi-governmental and non-governmental actors; and, the finance available to fund policy initiatives. It then considers how far Scotland has travelled on the road to constitutional change, comparing the original devolved framework with calls for independence or a new devolution settlement. The book draws heavily on information produced since 1999 by the Scottish Devolution Monitoring project (which forms one part of the devolution monitoring project led by the Constitution Unit, UCL) and is supplemented by new research on public policy, minority government, intergovernmental relations and constitutional change.
Download or read book Individual electoral registration written by Great Britain: Cabinet Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2011-06-30 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This White Paper and draft legislation sets out the next stage in the Coalition Programme for Government on improving the political system. Within the Coalition Programme was the ambition to "reduce electoral fraud by speeding up implementation of Individual Electoral Registration", and this Paper sets out detailed proposals to achieve that objective. At present the electoral register is compiled by household and relies on trusting that those who register to vote are eligible. Individual Electoral Registration requires each elector to register to vote individually, and for each elector to provide personal identifiers for verification. The White Paper sets out a plan to accelerate and implement Individual Electoral Registration in line with the Coalition Agreement by 2014 and before the next UK Parliamentary general election. The Government will also drop the previous Government's plans for a voluntary phase, but instead have a transition period, which means electors who do not register by 2014 will not lose their entitlement to vote in the 2015 General Election. New electors, postal and proxy voters will though need to register under the new system to be able to vote. Alongside this legislation a number of "Data Pilot Schemes" will be launched that will compare the local electoral registers against those of public databases for accuracy and identify unregistered electors eligible to vote. The legislation will also look at modernising the electoral registration in general, including: allowing Electoral Registration Officers to offer more choice in registering, including online; giving people greater control over verification of their eligibility; and once Parliament is satisfied, end the annual canvass of households as the primary means of maintaining the completeness and accuracy of the register.
