The Diffusion of Morality Policies by Victor-David Cruz-Aceves Pdf

Diese Studie erforscht die Diffusion von "morality policies" in den US-Bundesstaaten mittels u.a. statistischer Ereigniszeitanalyse und zeigt, dass das Ausmaß in dem Politikdiffusion stattfindet, in Abhängigkeit vom "morality policy" Grad variiert. Die Bereitschaft, aus der zeitlich vorhergehenden Verabschiedung von Moralpolitiken in anderen Bundesstaaten mit ähnlichen moralischen Werten zu lernen nimmt mit abnehmenden Moralpolitikcharakteristiken zu. Als Folge davon steigt die Stärke des Diffusionseffektes auf die Politikverabschiedungswahrscheinlichkeit mit abnehmenden Moralpolitikcharakteristiken. Bei weniger hervorstechenden, technisch komplexeren Moralpolitiken wird auch Information von ideologisch unähnlichen Staaten herangezogen.

Morality Policies in Europe by Christoph Knill Pdf

The regulation of issues like abortion, euthanasia, gun control, same-sex unions, pornography, prostitution, drugs, or gambling is commonly referred to a special class of so called morality policies. The distinctive feature of these policies is that politics are shaped by conflicts over first principle: When does life end? When does it begin? Is gambling, drug consumption or prostitution inherently malignant? The regulation of these value conflicts entails decisions about "right" or "wrong" and hence the "validation of a particular set of basic values". Yet there is still a remarkable lack of scholarly attention on morality policies, in particular with regard to general implications for the study of public policy. To stimulate further research in this area, this book focuses on different concepts and theories of morality policy change in European countries. It is based on a broad and comparative empirical perspective on different morality issues, including, for instance, the regulation of prostitution, abortion, euthanasia, gambling, drugs, as well as gun controls.This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of European Public Policy.

Policy Diffusion Dynamics in America by Graeme Boushey Pdf

Policy Diffusion Dynamics in America integrates research from agenda setting and epidemiology to model factors that shape the speed and scope of public policy diffusion. Drawing on a data set of more than 130 policy innovations, the research demonstrates that the 'laboratories of democracy' metaphor for incremental policy evaluation and emulation is insufficient to capture the dynamic process of policy diffusion in America. A significant subset of innovations trigger outbreaks - the extremely rapid adoption of innovation across states. The book demonstrates how variation in the characteristics of policies, the political and institutional traits of states, and differences among interest group carriers interact to produce distinct patterns of policy diffusion.

The Public Clash of Private Values by Christopher Z. Mooney Pdf

Abortion, capital punishment, gambling, homosexual rights, pornography, physician assisted suicide, and sex education are among the most controversial issues facing public policymakers today. All involve controversial questions of first principle that render public policy no less than legal sanctions of right or wrong, or morality policy. Mooney brings together top researchers in the field to explore the unique characteristics and politics of morality policy. The result is a definition of the current state of knowledge in the field and a guideline for future observation.

The Place of Morality in Foreign Policy by Felix E. Oppenheim Pdf

Oppenheim (political science, U. of Massachusetts) examines the question of when it is relevant, and when not, to judge relations between governments from a moral perspective. He considers the state as actor, national interest, and nuclear weapons; and cites examples from the Munich Pact to the Iraqi War. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

The Indirect Effect of Direct Legislation by Frederick J. Boehmke Pdf

"To demonstrate this, the author models the incentives that the initiative process creates for interests to organize and for how they communicate their preferences to policy makers. Interests that represent a broader range of the public are found to gain the most from the option to propose initiatives, implying that the set of organized interests in initiative states should reflect this advantage. Ironically, an effect of direct legislation is to potentially increase the effectiveness of special interest lobbying in state legislatures - in a sense, the opposite of the direct control that gives direct legislation its theoretical appeal. Yet, the clear effect is one of empowering voices that traditionally had very little effect in the legislative process.

Religious Voting in Western Democracies by José Ramón Montero,Paolo Segatti,Kerman Calvo Pdf

This book offers a systematic exploration of the role of religion and religiosity in electoral politics in Catholic, Protestant, and religiously mixed countries across Western Europe and in the United States. The chapters approach the relationship between religion, religiosity, and electoral behaviour from a variety of different angles. They include analyses of secularization trends; comparative studies of the links between vote choice and religiosity; longitudinal single country studies; and a novel discussion of the theoretical underpinnings of the politicization of religion that provides a radically new framework for the analysis of the role of religiosity in election studies. The volume shows that despite the expectations of secularization theory, religiosity remains relevant when casting votes. It also argues that the traditional notion of religious cleavage should be replaced with the more accurate idea of religious voting. Chapters draw on National Election Studies data and comparative datasets such as European Values Studies (EVS), European Social Surveys (ESS), and European Election Studies (EES) to empirically test expectations regarding religious voting. The results show that variations in religious voting are conditional on both the agency of political and ecclesiastical leaders when politicizing religious issues and the legacies of previous societal and political religious conflicts, regardless of whether the original party system had a predominant religious cleavage.
