Recenzii
This is the definitive volume on legislative debates and a must-read text for scholars interested in political institutions and representation. The editors masterfully outline the case for studying legislative speech, and draw together insights from a diverse set of democracies to shed new light on the rules governing debates and factors that determine who speaks in legislatures.
The data generated every time legislators do one of their core activities—speaking— is a rich resource for understanding democratic linkages. This volume combines theoretical and methodological insights with case studies from a wide range of contexts around the world, making it essential to advancing research on how democratic institutions function.
Harmonized analysis for 32 parliamentary, presidential, and semi-presidential democracies around the world offers a major expansion to knowledge about legislator speech-making. Particularly important is the assessment of conditions in which there is a gap in speech between men and women legislators, suggesting many avenues for future research.
The editors have assembled the best authors in the field to offer a collection not only on recent theories of legislative debates, but also on the best methods to analyse them. With a mixture of overview, analysis, and over thirty case studies from legislative debates from around the world, this volume makes an outstanding contribution to the literature and is a must-read for any scholar of legislative studies.
Politicians do like to talk but as this volume demonstrates, parliamentary speech is more than sound and fury. Applying contemporary text analysis tools, the contributors analyze speech activity in legislative assemblies from Iceland to Malawi. Audacious in scope and impressive in execution, this is an unrivalled contribution to its field.
The Politics of Legislative Debates not only makes a significant contribution on its own, but also complements other handbooks that scholars in parliamentary and legislative studies have been treated with in recent years.
