Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract In mid-November 2012, elections will be held in each police force area in England and Wales, apart from London, for the post of police and crime commissioner. Senior police officers suggest it will be the biggest shake-up since the first police force was established by Sir Robert Peel in the early nineteenth century. The government believes the new PCCs will empower local communities to decide policing priorities in their areas; critics fear the move is politicising policing and may prove detrimental to national policing needs. Margaret Gilmore investigates the challenges and the likely impact of this new approach

Georgia's 2012 elections and lessons for democracy promotion / Cecire, Michael   Journal Article
Cecire, Michael Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract The opposition Georgian Dream coalition's upset victory in Georgia's October 2012 parliamentary elections displaced the then-ruling United National Movement as well as the "competitive authoritarian" model it had instituted. While the future of Georgian democracy remains an open question, the elections may offer transferrable lessons for democracy promotion in other competitive authoritarian systems. In particular, Georgian Dream was able to successfully use leadership, messaging, and international engagement to pose the first meaningful challenge to the ruling party since the 2003 Rose Revolution. Georgia's recent experience also highlights the need for better-tailored policies to address the hybrid nature of the competitive authoritarian model.
