Parliament and Parliamentarism

A Comparative History of a European Concept

340 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This cross-disciplinary collection locates the essence of parliamentarism in four key aspects—deliberation, representation, responsibility, and sovereignty. Explores the different ways in which they have been contested, reshaped, and implemented in a series of representative national and regional case studies. One of the first comparative studies in conceptual history. Focuses on debates about the nature of parliament and parliamentarism within and across different European countries, representative institutions, and genres of political discourse.
