The politics of parliamentary procedure
Title The politics of parliamentary procedure : the formation of the Westminster procedure as a parliamentary ideal type / Kari Palonen Author Palonen, Kari, 1947- (Author) Publication Opladen ; Berlin ; Toronto : Barbara Budrich Publishers, 2014 Scope 274 stran ; 22 cm Country Germany ; Canada Language English Note Obsahuje bibliografii a rejstřík Annotation "Currently, parliament as a political institution does not enjoy the best reputation. This book aims to recover less known political resources of the parliamentary mode of proceeding. The parliamentary procedure relies on regulating debates in a fair way and on constructing opposed perspectives on the agenda items. The British House of Commons provides the closest historical approximation for the parliamentary ideal type of politics. This book deals with the formation and conceptual change in the Westminster procedure, based on the way they are interpreted in the tracts on procedure. The tracts illustrate the changing parliamentary self-understanding from the 1570s to the present and the growing political role of procedural disputes. The parliamentary style of politics, as discussed in the tracts, can be divided into two genres: the politics of agenda-setting and the politics of debate."--Cover Výrazy tezauru parlamentní proces * národní parlament * Spojené království * parlamentní rozprava * studie práce Klasifikační znaky 0426 - Práce parlamentu 0421 - Parlament ISBN 978-3-8474-0610-5 Copy count 1, currently available 0 Document kind Monografie book
