Download or read book Presidential Activism and Veto Power in Central and Eastern Europe written by Philipp Köker and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-06-20 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the use of presidential powers in Central and East Europe between 1990 and 2010. Focussing on presidential vetoes and the formation of governments, it maps patterns of presidential activism and its determinants across nine democracies. Thereby, it combines the analysis of original quantitative data on the use of presidential powers with in-depth case studies in an innovative mixed-methods framework. Based on regression analyses and unique insights from numerous elite interviews, the study shows strong support for the hitherto insufficiently tested assumption that popularly elected presidents are more active than their indirectly elected counterparts. As one of the first comprehensive comparative studies of presidential activism and veto power in Europe, this book will be a key resource not only for area specialists but also for scholars of presidential studies, comparative government, and executives.

Download or read book The Presidential Veto written by Robert J. Spitzer and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1988-01-01 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first modern study of the veto. In addition to tracing the genesis and historical evolution from Ancient Rome, through the ultimate inclusion in the Constitution, it also explores the veto's consequences for modern presidents. In doing so, Spitzer promotes a key argument about the relation between the veto power and the Presidency -- namely, that the rise of the veto power, beginning with the first Chief Executive, is symptomatic of the rise of the strong modern Presidency, and has in fact been a major tool of Presidency-building. A special and revealing irony of the veto power is seen in the finding that, despite its monarchical roots and anti-majoritarian nature, the veto has become a key vehicle for presidents to appeal directly to, and on behalf of, the people. Thus, the veto's utility for presidents arises not only as a power to use against Congress, but also as a symbolic, plebiscitary tool.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The veto power is one of the most important aspects of checks and balances in the United States Government, as it helps the executive branch to check the legislative. A bill presented by Congress needs the signature of the President to become law, except when the Congress successfully overrides a veto with a 2/3 majority vote in both houses. This book provides important information about vetoes from the 1st session of the 2nd Congress under George Washington to the 1st session of the 105th Congress under Bill Clinton.

Download or read book Encyclopedia of Presidential Vetoes from Washington Through to Biden written by John R. Vile and published by . This book was released on 2024 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The presidential veto is one of the U.S. president's chief domestic powers and effectively grants the president the power to be the third house of Congress. Although the veto is qualified rather than absolute, even when Congress overrides a veto, members of Congress might modify proposals to meet the president's wishes. Often the mere threat of a veto also influences such legislation. At other times, presidential veto threats encourage members of the party in opposition to the president to propose bills that will further highlight such differences for political reasons. In encyclopedic form, this book provides entries on: how each U.S. president has exercised this power; on each of the major areas policy in which U.S. presidents have exercised the veto; on leading theorists and designers of the veto power; on leading debates about the exercise of this power; on Supreme Court decisions that have discussed the process; on proposed changes to the process; and on political aspects of the process. Each entry includes cross-references and bibliographic references, and the book includes a glossary and an index. This book will be an indispensable aid to students of the U.S. Presidency at a time when the president and congress are often at loggerheads on both constitutional matters and policy issues.--Publisher.
