Elections, Parties and Representation in Post-Communist Europe
By: Millard, F.
Published by: Palgrave Macmillan, Ltd.
Elections, Parties and Representation in Post-Communist Europe 1990-2002 stresses the ways in which the development of political parties affected the quality of democracy, the nature of political representation, and political accountability in the early stages of post-communist politics. It also analyzes the nature and consequences of the corpus of parliamentary candidates and deputies for the representation of social classes, women and minorities. In contrast with the wide social profile of communist parliaments, politics largely became the playground of new highly educated male elites.

Electoral Processes and Governance in South Asia
By: Mendis, Dushyantha
Published by: SAGE India
Most South Asian countries—following independence from British rule in the. late nineteen forties, and in the case of Nepal, liberation from the autocracy. of one family group in 1950—have enjoyed democratic systems of governance. at least at some time or the other, often for extended periods of time, and, in. a few cases, over the course of their post-independence history. Electoral processes. have, however, been found wanting to greater or lesser extents in all these countries. Electoral malpractices are of critical concern to all South Asian countries. It is in this background that the International Centre for Ethnic Studies,. Kandy,Sri Lanka, with funding from the Ford Foundation, organized in 2002, an. international conference on electoral processes and governance in South Asia. The South Asian countries selected for study were Bangladesh, India, Nepal,. Pakistan and Sri Lanka, and papers were presented by experts in the area of. electoral processes and governance in these countries. This book, based on the. papers originally presented at that conference, seeks to understand electoral. processes as they actually operate in South Asia, to discuss the reasons for. the flaws in these systems and the degrees of success or failure in attempts. at reform.

Electoral Reform at Work
By: Salmon, Philip
Published by: Boydell & Brewer
The Reform Act of 1832 set in motion the political transformation of Britain. Drawing on hitherto neglected local archives, Dr Salmon demonstrates how the practical details of this extensively debated Parliamentary reform, aided by the workings of the New Poor Law (1834) and Municipal Corporations Act (1835), had a profound impact on borough and county politics, laying the constitutional foundations for the representative democracy of the Victorians.

Electoral Systems and Political Transformation in Post-Communist Europe
By: Birch, Dr Sarah; Wallace, Helen
Published by: Palgrave
Electoral Systems and Political Transformation in Post-Communist Europe assesses the influence of electoral systems on political change in 20 post-communist European states. The main finding is that electoral institutions have systematic effects on the formation of representative structures. 'Party-enabling' aspects of electoral laws such as list proportional representation tend to foster popular inclusion in politics and institutionalized party systems, whereas 'politician-enabling' rules such as single-member districts and ballots that allow voters to select individuals often favour the development of weakly structured systems and high levels of popular exclusion from the representative process.
