Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The DEI label fell out of fashion because of activist excess and shifting political winds, not because the values of diversity, equity, and inclusion are defective or unworthy of serious consideration. In this anthology, a group of theologians and writers reflect on these values, on the DEI phenomenon as a whole, and on related themes such as identity, recognition, friendship, enmity, and lamentation. They consider what is right and good in the concepts of diversity, equity, and inclusion, and what traditional DEI got wrong or left out. The aim is not to recommend a Christian or theological worldview, but to show how religious traditions might enlarge future efforts at social advocacy and take us beyond the partisan deadlock.…

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Around the world, established parties are weakening, and new parties are failing to take root. In many cases, outsiders have risen and filled the void, posing a threat to democracy. Why do most new parties fail? Under what conditions do they survive and become long-term electoral fixtures? Brandon Van Dyck investigates these questions in the context of the contemporary Latin American left. He argues that stable parties are not an outgrowth of democracy. On the contrary, contemporary democracy impedes successful party building. To construct a durable party, elites must invest time and labor, and they must share power with activists. Because todays elites have access to party substitutes like mass media, they can win votes without making such sacrifices in time, labor, and autonomy. Only under conditions of soft authoritarianism do office-seeking elites have a strong electoral incentive to invest in party building. Van Dyck illustrates this argument through a comparative analysis of four new left parties in Latin America: two that collapsed and two that survived. Investigates why parites fail in the context of the contemporary Latin American left. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Nearly four decades since the onset of the third wave, political parties remain weak in Latin America: parties have collapsed in much of the region, and most new party-building efforts have failed. Why do some new parties succeed while most fail? This book challenges the widespread belief that democracy and elections naturally give rise to strong parties and argues that successful party-building is more likely to occur under conditions of intense conflict than under routine democracy. Periods of revolution, civil war, populist mobilization, or authoritarian repression crystallize partisan attachments, create incentives for organization-building, and generate a 'higher cause' that attracts committed activists. Empirically rich chapters cover diverse cases from across Latin America, including both successful and failed cases.…
