Political Uncertainty

Beschreibung

This timely book provides a comprehensive, multi-dimensional and comparative analysis of political uncertainty. It is innovative in introducing the notions of inter-institutional, verbally induced, and historical uncertainty. It argues for an inclusive approach which considers multiple aspects of uncertainty, even when they are of a different nature. Combining aggregate statistical analysis and qualitative case studies, it compares political uncertainty in established and non-consolidated democracies. Overall, this book furnishes important insights into uncertainty in political life and how the discipline of political science is coming to terms with it.

Rezensionen

"The book comes at an opportune time, when political uncertainty is rife. It rightfully traces political uncertainty to competing mechanisms of political accountability and masterfully links it to contemporary debates about the nature of democracy. This is a most timely synthesis."-Laurence Whitehead, Senior Research Fellow, Nuffield College, Oxford University
