Sommario/riassunto |
|
Lawmaking is crucial to American democracy because it completely defines and regulates the public life of the nation. Yet despite its importance, political scientists spend very little time studying the direct impact that the politics surrounding a particular issue has on lawmaking. The Substance of Representation draws on a vast range of historical and empirical data to better understand how lawmaking works across different policy areas. Specifically, John Lapinski introduces a theoretically grounded method for parsing policy issues into categories, and he shows how policymaking varies in predictable ways based on the specific issue area being addressed.

examines the ways in which key factors that influence policymaking matter for certain types of policy issues, and he includes an exhaustive look at how elite political polarization shifts across these areas. He considers how Congress behaves according to the policy issue at hand, and how particular areas--such as war, sovereignty issues, and immigration reform--change legislative performance. Relying on records of all Congressional votes since Reconstruction and analyzing voting patterns across policy areas from the late nineteenth to late twentieth centuries, Lapinski provides a comprehensive historical perspective on lawmaking in order to shed light on current practices. Giving a clear picture of Congressional behavior in the policymaking process over time, The Substance of Representation provides insights into the critical role of American lawmaking. |

profondément innovants que L’Éducation sentimentale. L’influence du roman de Flaubert sur la destinée ultérieure de son art, mais aussi d’autres arts mimétiques (peinture, photographie, cinéma), a été considérable, bien au-delà de Zola et de l’impressionnisme. C’est aussi un grand roman politique, plus fin et plus intéressant que ce que la correspondance de l’auteur pourrait laisser penser. Comme toutes les grandes fictions, il condense les conflits sociaux et les enjeux de l’histoire en quelques scènes d une puissance admirable. Enfin, comme son titre et son sous-titre (« Histoire d’un jeune homme ») le laissent entendre, ce roman est un roman d’amour. Mais il inaugure une nouvelle ère dans l’histoire du roman d’éducation et du roman sentimental. Sans renier ses racines romantiques, il opère une série de déplacements dont la force de dévoilement est considérable, sur un plan sociologique comme sur un plan psychologique. Ce sont les aspects de L’Éducation sentimentale auxquels ce livre s’intéresse. |
