American Political Parties and Elections pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
Few Americans and even fewer citizens of other nations understand the electoral process in the United States. Still fewer understand the role played by political parties in the electoral process or the ironies within the system. Participation in elections in the United States is much lower than in the vast majority of mature democracies. Perhaps this is because of the lack of competition in a country where only two parties have a true chance of winning, despite the fact that a large number of citizens claim allegiance to neither and think badly of both. Or perhaps it is because in the U.S. campaign contributions disproportionately favor incumbents in most legislative elections, or that largely unregulated groups such as the now notorious 527s have as much impact on the outcome of a campaign as do the parties or the candidates' campaign organizations. Studying these factors, you begin to get a very clear picture indeed of the problems that underlay our much trumpeted electoral system. This Very Short Introduction introduces the reader to these issues and more, providing an insider's view of how the system actually works while shining a light on some of its flaws. As we enter what is sure to be yet another highly contested election year, it is more important than ever that Americans take the time to learn the system that puts so many in power.

四年一次的美国总统选举可谓美国今日最火爆的娱乐节目——兴许就连超级碗都无法匹敌。我们看到民主党与共和党候选人唇枪舌战,彼此攻讦,直至最后的结果出炉。某种程度上,因为美国的全球影响力,它甚至是整个星球上最火爆的娱乐节目。不过,在热闹喧哗背后,争议的声音此起彼...
评分序言 王希/文 世界上有各种形式的民主,美国民主可能是最为引人注目的。譬如,四年一度的美国总统选举本是一场内政大戏,但却牵动着他国的政治神经,不光媒体趋之若鹜,密切跟踪,就连普通民众也情不自禁地选边站队,卷入争论之中。这种外部关注其实是一种相对晚近的现象。...
