This book examines whether the mechanisms of accountability characteristic of democratic systems are sufficient to induce the representatives to act in the best interest of the represented. The first part of the volume focuses on the role of elections, distinguishing different ways in which they may cause representation. The second part is devoted to the role of checks and balances, between the government and the parliament as well as between the government and the bureaucracy. The contributors of this volume, all leading scholars in the fields of American and comparative politics and political theory, address questions such as, whether elections induce governments to act in the interest of citizens. Are politicians in democracies accountable to voters in future elections? If so, does accountability induce politicians to represent citizens? Does accountability limit or enhance the scope of action of governments? Are governments that violate campaign mandates representative? Overall, the essays combine theoretical discussions, game-theoretic models, case studies, and statistical analyses, within a shared analytical approach and a standardized terminology. The empirical material is drawn from the well established democracies as well as from new democracies.
Political Accountability扛鼎之作~
评分有些章节不是很理解。当然,accountability,责任说明这个概念现在已经的确高度定式化了,有了较为完整的贝叶斯博弈模型来理解民主制度下的责任说明何以可能。不过,在形式化之前,若干基本的前提的确是需要讨论的,政治家追求权力,且无论在选举还是在选举之外,都试图竭力试图做到这一点。抛去非选出部的行政部门不谈,政治家的确有相当多的手段,除去书中所论及的那些可能的方式来让自己掌权的。传统的方法:操纵选区划分,改变选举制度之外。例如在日本,很多其他的制度性安排:公职选举法对新人进入政治市场的限制,国会制度所给予的在野党有限的影响力,对在野党的负面攻击,对在野党分而治之的策略都大幅降低了自民党责任说明的可能性。相较Takahashi教授他们所做的日本责任说明增强的报告,真是觉得不怎么有信服感。
