Jane Green Will Jennings The Politics of Competence (Paperback) (UK IMPORT)

Description: Further DetailsTitle: The Politics of CompetenceCondition: NewDescription: Using decades of public opinion data from the US, UK, Australia, Germany and Canada, and distinguishing between three concepts - issue ownership, performance and generalised competence - Green and Jennings show how political parties come to gain or lose 'ownership' of issues, how they are judged on their performance in government across policy issues and how they develop a reputation for competence (or incompetence) over a period in office. Their analysis tracks the major events causing people to re-evaluate party reputations and the costs of governing which cause electorates to punish parties in power. They reveal why, when and how these movements in public opinion matter to elections. The implications are important for long-standing debates about performance and partisanship, and reveal that public opinion about party and governing competence is, to a great extent, the product of major shocks and predictable dynamics.Author: Jane Green, Will JenningsCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBEAN: 9781316610558Format: PaperbackGenre: Society & CultureISBN: 9781316610558Item Height: 230mmItem Length: 153mmItem Weight: 490gItem Width: 18mmLanguage: EnglishPublisher: Cambridge University PressRelease Date: 04/26/2018Subtitle: Parties, Public Opinion and VotersTopic: Social Sciences, Law & PoliticsType: Political Science & IdeologyRelease Year: 2018 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
