With regard to each of these outcomes, Ferrara synthesizes "power-based" or "power-distributional" explanations and "ideas-based" "legitimation explanations." Among his more significant contributions, he specifies the psychological "microfoundations" of processes of institutional development, drawing heavily from the findings of experimental psychology to ensure that the explanation is grounded in clear and realistic assumptions regarding human motivation, cognition, and behavior. Aside from being of interest to scholars and graduate students in political science and other social-scientific disciplines whose research concentrates on the genesis of political institutions, their evolution over time, and/or their impact on the stability of political order and the quality of governance, the book may feature as required reading in graduate courses and seminars in comparative politics where the study of institutions and their development ranks among the subfield's most important subjects." 410 0$aWeiser Center for Emerging Democracies 517 3 $aPower, legitimacy, democracy 606 $aPolitical development$xHistory 606 $aPolitical development$xPsychological aspects 606 $aPolitical development$xCross-cultural studies 615 0$aPolitical development$xHistory. 615 0$aPolitical development$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aPolitical development$xCross-cultural studies. 676 $a320.1/1 700 $aFerrara$b Federico$01130360 801 0$bEYM 801 1$bEYM 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910584585203321 996 $aThe Development of Political Institutions$92908718 997 $aUNINA
