0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract This article focuses on India's relationship with Sri Lanka in examining why a regional power failed to manage a conflict in its immediate neighborhood. Historical and domestic factors help explain India's largely hands-off policy (1991-2006). In contrast, regional and international factors underpin its support of Colombo's military campaign against the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, including New Delhi's concerns about China.

Party systems, critical junctures, and cleavages in southeast A / Ufen, Andreas   Journal Article
Ufen, Andreas Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract This article differentiates between clientelist (Thailand and the Philippines) and cleavage-based parties and party systems (Malaysia and Indonesia) with reference to insights of historical institutionalism. Clientelist parties, in contrast to cleavage-based ones, often undermine democratization because, on average, representativeness is weak, bureaucracy is more politicized, and rent-seeking behavior is widespread.

0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract This research takes the case of Public Nomination and Direct Election, currently being rolled out in the People's Republic of China, to explain the function of elections in China. We believe that the goal of implementing this election system is to increase the governing ability of the Chinese Communist Party, thus sustaining the survival of the party-state system.

0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.

Strong state and strong civil society in contemporary South Kor: challenges to democratic governance / Oh, Jennifer S   Journal Article
Oh, Jennifer S Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract This article examines the impact of Korean civil society on politics since democratization. Weak mediating institutions prevent the systematic inclusion of societal actors in the policymaking process, pitting an increasingly strengthened civil society against the state. Consequently, Korean state-society relations continue to remain contentious, posing challenges to democratic governance.
