Mershon and Shvetsova's theory focuses on the choices of party membership made by legislators while serving in office. It identifies the inducements and impediments to legislators' changes of partisan affiliation, and integrates strategic and institutional approaches to the study of parties and party systems. With empirical analyses comparing nine countries that differ in electoral laws, territorial governance and executive-legislative relations, Mershon and Shvetsova find that strategic incumbents have the capacity to reconfigure the party system as established in elections. Representatives are motivated to bring about change by opportunities arising during the parliamentary term, and are deterred from doing so by the elemental democratic practice of elections. 606 $aParty affiliation$vCross-cultural studies 606 $aPolitical parties$vCross-cultural studies 606 $aLegislators$vCross-cultural studies 606 $aLegislative bodies$vCross-cultural studies 615 0$aParty affiliation 615 0$aPolitical parties 615 0$aLegislators 615 0$aLegislative bodies 676 $a328.3/69 700 $aMershon$b Carol$0262562 702 $aShvetsova$b Olga$g(Olga Vitalievna), 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452465903321 996 $aParty System Change in Legislatures Worldwide$92467947 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03703oam 2200697I 450 001 9910461802603321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-283-52087-7 010 $a9786613833327 010 $a1-84977-560-5 010 $a1-136-53796-1 024 7 $a10.4324/9781849775601 035 $a(CKB)2670000000232161 035 $a(EBL)987961 035 $a(OCoLC)804661407 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000695147 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11447974 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000695147 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10675181 035 $a(PQKB)10183707 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC987961 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL987961 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10589103 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL383332 035 $a(OCoLC)804038658 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000232161 100 $a20180706d2011 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aCollaborative governance of tropical landscapes /$fedited by Carol J.

It focuses attention at the interface between communities and the landscape level, building on interdisciplinary research conducted in five countries (Cameroon, Indonesia, Laos, Madagascar and Tanzania). In each country, the research was set within the framework of a major national policy thrust.

Criticism and art events : reading with Lyotard and Baudrillard. 330 $aIdeas, says Sande Cohen, have attained "commodity" status in the academy, and knowledge is now seen as another capitalistic "industry." In Academia and the Luster of Capital, Cohen both reveals and interrogates the specific and material workings of this economy of the marketplace of ideas.Cohen uses paradigms from Baudrillard, Lytoard, Deleuze, and Guattari to assemble a "war machine" against the well-oiled apparatus of self-preservation and self-reproduction of the academic institution. In detailed and concrete arguments, he challenges accepted theories of criticism, especially university-based 606 $aCriticism (Philosophy) 606 $aCritical theory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCriticism (Philosophy) 615 0$aCritical theory. 676 $a001 700 $aCohen$b Sande$0885208 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457630703321 996 $aAcademia and the luster of capital$91976499 997 $aUNINA
