On human nature: beyond homo economicus -- Moral dispositions -- Economising on virtue -- Political mechanisms -- Mechanisms and dispositional choice -- Problems of democratic politics -- Democratic devices. Voting and elections -- Political representation -- Political parties -- The separation of powers -- The division of power.This book offers an account of key features of modern representative democracy. Working from the rational actor tradition, it builds a middle ground between orthodox political theory and the economic analysis of politics. Standard economic models of politics emphasise the design of the institutional devices of democracy as operated by essentially self-interested individuals. This book departs from that model by focusing on democratic desires alongside democratic devices, stressing that important aspects of democracy depend on the motivation of democrats and the interplay between devices and desires. Individuals are taken to be not only rational, but also somewhat moral. The authors argue that this approach provides access to aspects of the debate on democratic institutions that are beyond the narrowly economic model. They apply their analysis to voting, elections, representation, political departments and the separation and division of powers, providing a wide-ranging discussion of the design of democratic institutions.Theories of institutional design.Democratic Devices & DesiresDemocracyEconomic aspectsPolitical scienceEconomic aspectsDemocracyEconomic aspects.Political scienceEconomic aspects.321.8Brennan Geoffrey1944-126951Hamlin Alan P.1951-UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910449953303321Democratic devices and desires629739UNINA02951nas 2200793-a 450 99619939420331620240413021551.0(CKB)963018224021(CONSER)---89644787-(EXLCZ)9996301822402119890518a19889999 --- aengtxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierCED[Denver, CO International Thomson Communications]1 online resourceTitle from cover.Imprint varies: <Dec. 1990-> published by Diversified Publishing Group in New York, NY.Print version: CED (Denver, Colo.)
