State Participation in International Treaty Regimes
Author: Srini SitaramanPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317050436
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 381
Book Description
Why do some states resist entering into international treaty regimes while others demonstrate eagerness to participate? Although factors such as degree of pressure exerted by international actors, ambiguity in the treaty language and a regime's 'lack of teeth' (enforcement and sanctioning mechanism) do affect participation, this book investigates whether internal (domestic) factors may ultimately be responsible for influencing why a state resists or joins international treaty regimes. The volume draws on United Nations treaty ratification data from three different issue areas - arms control, environment and human rights - to study the participation patterns of democracies and non-democracies in international treaty regimes. Incorporating two in-depth case studies on the United States and China, the author traces the impact of domestic institutional structure, state capacity and internal social norms on state decisions to resist or participate.
Political Participation in Asia
Author: Ginger L DentonPublisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814651753
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
This book examines types of political participation in ten Asian countries. The inquiry begins by building on past theories of types of political behavior and who participates in each type. Then six dimensions of political participation are constructed and tested using a survey dataset from the Asian Barometer Survey. The findings from this empirical analysis indicate that Asians also fall into six political behavior types. The analysis continues with an examination of social characteristics (such as age, gender, income, etc.) that help determine with which type of participation one will be involved. After examining participation in the region as a whole, the scope of this book turns to a quantitative investigation of individual countries in Asia. Contents:Introduction to Asian Political BehaviorLiterature ReviewParticipation in the Asian ContextTypologies of Participation in AsiaPolitical Behavior within Ten Asian CountriesConclusion Readership: Academics, undergraduate and graduate students, professionals interested in political participation, political behavior in Asian countries. Key Features:Examines all aspects of political participation in Asia instead of focusing on just voter turnoutIncludes survey data from thousands of individuals, across ten countries, to help quantitatively explain participation patterns in AsiaKeywords:Political Participation;Asia;Political Behavior;Voting

The EU and its Member States’ Joint Participation in International Agreements
Author: Nicolas LevratPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 150994589X
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
EU law has developed a unique and complex system under which the Union and its Member States can both act under international law, separately, jointly or in parallel. International law was not set up to deal with such complex and hybrid arrangements, which raise questions under both international and EU law. This book assesses how EU law has been adapted to cope with the constraints of international law in situations in which the EU and its Member States act jointly in relations with other States and international organisations. In an innovative scholarly approach, reflecting this duality, each chapter is jointly written by a team of two authors. The various contributions offer new insights into the tension that continues to exist between EU and international law obligations in relation to the (joint) participation of the EU and its Member States in international agreements.
