Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Illustrated by in-depth empirical research from six country studies, Gendered Electoral Financing: Money, Power and Representation in Comparative Perspective is the first cross-regional examination of the nexus between money, gender and political recruitment across the world.Money is assumingly one of the greatest barriers to women in the political recruitment process. The financial disadvantage of women is expected to constitute an obstacle for womens entry into politics everywhere and especially in developing countries where womens socio-economic status is disproportionately low relative to mens. This line of reasoning has caused a global upswing in both candidate- and party-directed financial schemes introduced to enhance gender balance in political office. This book develops a typology of different kinds of gendered electoral financing schemes and builds theories about its causes and consequences. By comparing how gendered electoral financing affects political recruitment processes in both established and emerging democracies, the authors identify whether and how the funding mechanisms incentivize a shift in political behavior.Gendered Electoral Financing is a timely, informative and well-written book that does an excellent job of explaining, in language accessible to students and researchers alike, the cost of elections, gender imbalance in political office and the effects of financial incentive mechanisms to increase womens representation in politics. Illustrated by in-depth empirical research from seven country studies, Gendered Electoral Financing is the first cross-regional examination of the nexus between money and political recruitment across the world.

Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. The death of Chinas first emperor in 210 BCE initiated a brutal power struggle between Xiang Yu, Hegemon-King of Western Chu,and Liu Bang, later founder of the Han dynasty; the lowly Han Xin also strove for advancement. For over 2,000 years, the resulting story has been celebrated in China. Even today its main protagonists are household names. This is an epic tale of courage and cowardice, honour and treachery, acted out by lords, officials and soldiers, mothers, wives and concubines, and has inspired great works of literature, performance and the arts. Yet only recently has this narrative been translated into English in Western Han: A Yangzhou Storytellers Script by the same authors (see p. 50). To a large extent, Han Xins Challenge is a shortened version of Western Han, largely comprising its English translation plus explanatory text. It is more than that, however. The story has been made more accessible to the general reader without compromising the accuracy of the translation. Its text is also illuminated with artwork that brings the narrative to life and shows how embedded the tale is in Chinese culture, even today. The result is a text ideal for the teaching of Chinese history, culture and literature. But also it is a sweeping drama, a page-turner,a story that anyone can enjoy. This book is a sweeping drama on the fall of Chinas first imperial dynasty and the first work to bring the Western Han saga to a broad English-language readership. It is an ideal text for the teaching of Chinese history, culture and literature. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
