A Centripetal Theory of Democratic Governance pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
This book outlines the importance of political institutions in achieving good governance within a democratic polity and sets forth an argument to explore what sorts of institutions do the job best. By focusing on 'centripetal institutions', which maximize both representation and authority by bringing political energy and actors toward the centre of a polity, the authors set forth a relatively novel theory of democratic governance, applicable to all political settings in which multi-party competition obtains. Basing their theory on national-level political institutions, the authors argue that there are three types of political institutions that are fundamental in securing a centripetal style of democratic governance: unitary (rather than federal) sovereignty, a parliamentary (rather than presidential) executive, and a closed-list PR electoral system (rather than a single-member district or preferential-vote system).

意圖接續宏觀政體論理論傳統、係統與歸因視角及大規模跨國比較(薩托利、利普哈特、普特南等)的方法論,不過留下瞭諸多問題。整本書中兩作者似乎都沒有認真搞清楚幾個基本問題對於理論的意義:政治vs行政的二分(基本假定政治集權自然保證行政隨政治而動),囊括性體製的存在是否一定意味著實際決策中政治/行政權力的集中(附錄中對否決節點理論的討論仍有所不足),囊括性體製本身作為民主結果而不是原因、終端而非起點的問題(整個因果關係是否倒置瞭),善治的道德意義與可測量標準(基本還是偏嚮於采用發展理論中通用的標準而缺少理論和倫理的討論)等等。另外方法論也有可討論之處:纍積指數的計算辦法有些奇怪,似乎隻是簡單相加且假定瞭持續的貶損權重,而缺少動態考慮;測量中繼續迷信找P值而因果討論不足;民主門檻是否仍過低等。
