Werner's Nomenclature of Colours Adapted to Zoology, Botany, Chemistry, Mineralogy, Anatomy, and the Arts【電子書籍】[ Patrick Syme ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>Originally published in 1814, this remarkable volume features 110 colour swatches paired with poetic descriptions that capture nature's vibrant palette.</strong></p> <p>In the eighteenth century, German geologist Abraham Gottlob Werner (1750-1817) set out to establish a standard reference guide to colour for use in the general sciences. Decades later, Scottish botanical artist Patrick Syme (1774-1845) extended Werner's work, refining it into a comprehensive catalogue of the most prominent shades and hues found in nature. The result was a timeless compendium of colour that showcases the beauty of nature across the animal, vegetable, and mineral kingdoms.</p> <p>Each colour swatch in Syme's edition of <em>Werner's Nomenclature of Colours</em> is accompanied by examples found in nature, offering a practical tool for scientists, artists, and explorers alike. Notably, Charles Darwin used this guide during his voyage on the HMS Beagle to accurately describe his observations.</p> <p>This exquisite collection of colours celebrates the harmony of art and science, capturing the beauty found in the natural world.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Baroque Guitar in Spain and the New World Music transcribed and adapted for modern guitar, with facsimiles of the original tablatures【電子書籍】[ Frank Koonce ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>A substantial amount of early music for the guitar remains unknown to modern performers and audiences. In recent years, however, musicologists, scholars and performers on period instruments have provided a wealth of accessible new source materials which players can now begin to interpret in convincing and effective ways. Nevertheless, many still feel intimidated by the prospect of sorting through and learning to use these resources for the first time. For the uninitiated, just knowing where to start can be difficult.</p> <p>This anthology contains representative selections from the publications and manuscripts of four important Spanish Baroque guitarists: Gaspar Sanz, Antonio de Santa Cruz, Francisco Guerau, and Santiago de Murcia. In addition to being fun and entertaining music for all to enjoy, this collection is intended to help bridge the gap between scholarly editions and performance editions by providing a hands-on introduction to tablature transcription and to issues concerning historically informed performance on the modern guitar.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Payoffs in the Cloakroom The Greening of the Michigan Legislature, 1938-1946【電子書籍】[ Bruce A. Rubenstein ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><em>Payoffs in the Cloakroom</em> is a spellbinding follow-up to Rubenstein and Ziewacz's critically acclaimed <em>Three Bullets Sealed His Lips</em>. <em>Three Bullets</em> brought to life new evidence on the 1945 murder of Michigan Senator Warren Hooper. <em>Payoffs</em> in the Cloakroom takes up where <em>Three Bullets</em> left off, unraveling a complex web of political corruption and dirty state politics. In the process, the authors demonstrate that Senator Hooper was murdered to prevent his grand jury testimony against republican boss Frank McKay, who was facing bribery charges.<br /> Making use of actual court proceeding, personal interviews, and newspaper accounts, and even a re-evaluation of police evidence, Rubenstein and Ziewacz tell a story that contains all the ingredients of first-class detective fictionーonly in this instance, the story is based on fact. With chapter titles such as "Charlie and His Little Black Book," "I Never Dreamed Murder," and "Them Bones, Them Bones," the authors have, once again, provided a stimulating and absorbing account of one of the darker chapters of Michigan's political history.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Minority Parties in U.S. Legislatures Conditions of Influence【電子書籍】[ Jennifer Clark ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This study of the influence minority parties wield is both a major work of political science scholarship and a timely examination of an issue with real consequences for the functioning of democratic legislatures and the creation of legislation.</p> <p>Challenging conventional assumptions that the majority party dominates the legislature, Jennifer Hayes Clark investigates precisely the ways in whichーand under what conditionsーmembers of the minority party successfully pursue their interests. For this study, Clark collects fine-grained data from both the U.S. Congress and state legislatures to get a close look at three key points in the legislative process: committee assignments, bill cosponsorship, and roll-call votes. She finds that minority party members are not systematically excluded throughout the policymaking process. Indeed, their capacity to shape legislative decision-making is enhanced when party polarization is low, when institutional prerogatives are broadly dispersed rather than centralized, and when staff resources are limited. Under these conditions, bipartisanship bill cosponsorship and voting coalitions are also more prevalent.</p> <p>With the sharp increase of partisan polarization in state legislatures and in Congress, it is essential to understand how and when a minority party can effectively represent constituents.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (Madrid Code)【電子書籍】[ Editorial Committee of the Madrid Code ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>The latest, updated edition of the essential, authoritative reference for botanical, mycological, and phycological names.</strong></p> <p>The <em>International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants</em>, known as “the <em>Code</em>,” is the set of internationally agreed rules and recommendations that govern the naming of these organisms. Scientific naming has deep historical roots. Indeed, the system of naming organisms is one of the first truly global scientific standards. This essential reference originates in Alphonse de Candolle’s 1867 <em>Lois de la nomenclature botanique</em>. This 2025 edition of the <em>Code</em>, the <em>Madrid Code</em>, reflects the decisions made at the Twentieth International Botanical Congress, which met in Madrid, Spain, in July 2024. The congress debated 447 proposals to amend the <em>Code</em> and accepted important new rules, including a mechanism for voluntary registration of plant and algal names, clarifications for naming fossil taxa, the option to reject a new name if it is derogatory to a group of people, and the replacement of an epithet that was considered particularly offensive (revising to <em>afra</em>, <em>afrorum</em>, and <em>afrum</em>).</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The 1949 March And The Restoration of the Legislature【電子書籍】[ Bernadine Walters-Louis ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Activities leading up to the restoration of the Legislature...</p> <p>"A rumbling sound is coming out of the British Virgin Islands which may soon attract the attention of No. 10 Downing Street. Having tasted freedom and the pursuit of happiness served the American way, the younger inhabitants of Tortola are clamoring for a liberal form of government which gives them a voice in their own affairs."</p> <p>"In 1938, Mr. Hope Stevens, a native Tortolian, returned from the USA where he had studied and become a lawyer and activist. When he saw the depressed conditions of the Virgin Islands, both economically and politically, he decided to try to do something about it. One night he and David G. Fonseca, together with Charlie Georges and Jose O' Neal came into my shop, and Mr. Stevens told me that they proposed to start an organization to be called a Civic League. On Thursday the 24th of November 1949 a historic march led by three Virgin Islands native heroes, Leader No.1 Theodolph Faulkner, Leader No.2 Isaac 'Glannie' Fonseca, and Leader No.3 Carlton L. DeCastro and more than 1,500 Virgin Islanders, demonstrated that the Virgin Islands (British) wished to have it's own local government that represents its interests. The Legislative Council was therefore restored on Monday the 20th of November 1950.</p> <p>The 1949 March, often referred to as the 'Great March' or the "Freedom March" which was followed by the restoration of the Legislative Council of the Virgin Islands in 1950 are significant events in the historical annuals of the territory of the Virgin Islands. These two milestone events helped pave the way for internal self-government and the building of a modern Virgin Islands, including being allowed a Ministerial system of government in 1967 and further constitutional and political advancement which we continue to achieve.</p> <p>To understand why over 1500 persons participated in the 'Great March' demanding political freedom and better living conditions, it was necessary to provide the historical context by highlighting those factors which contributed to the conditions that triggered the march.</p> <p>Those factors include the following, The negative effects that a small population and the absence of a stable civil government had on the socio-economic and political well-being of the territory in that early period of sporadic settlement from the mid-1600s up to 1672. In 1672, the islands were included as part of the Colony of the Leeward Islands to achieve efficiency in their governance. A brief review of the colonial and local legislatures which administered the Presidency of the Virgin Islands between 1672 - 1956, when the islands were a member of the Colony of the Leeward Islands. The impact on the islands' development was minimal while being a part of that federation. (The inclusion of the workings of the colonial and local legislatures that were responsible for governance in the islands is not intended to be a comprehensive review of our constitutional history). The reasons why the Legislative Council of the Virgin Islands was taken away, and most important, the immediate pre-existing socio-economic conditions that triggered the march which was instrumental in the restoration of the Legislative Council in 1950 and a return of our democratic rights to representative government. The publication is part of a Young Readers-Easy Readers Series of the Virgin Islands Educational Publications Initiative, spearheaded by the Director of the Virgin Islands Studies Institute at the H. Lavity Stoutt Community College.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

On Legislatures The Puzzle of Representation【電子書籍】[ Gerhard Loewenberg ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>On Legislatures looks at why people support their individual representatives but continue to criticise the legislative system at every opportunity. Although legislatures exist in every political system and are meant to represent the people, they are generally disparaged because they appear both unrepresentative and indecisive. Gerhard Loewenberg explains this puzzling contradiction by examining what representation means and what it takes for a large number of equally representative members to reach decisions. It also describes the methods for studying legislatures that have been developed in the social sciences in the last half century and shows their importance in democratic societies throughout the world. On Legislatures gets to the heart of the current disconnect between legislatures and the public they are supposed to represent.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Multidimensional Democracy A Supply and Demand Theory of Representation in American Legislatures【電子書籍】[ Jeffrey J. Harden ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Multidimensional Democracy examines political representation from the supply (legislator) and demand (constituent) perspectives. Focusing on four dimensions - policy, service, allocation, and descriptive representation - it documents systematic variation in what people want from legislators and what legislators choose to emphasize while in office. It has important implications for the study of representation, as well as normative questions about political inequality in America. The demand-side results show that constituents who are economically advantaged tend to prefer policy-based representation while the disadvantaged place relatively more importance in constituent service and/or allocation. Suggestive results from the legislator data complement this finding; legislators in wealthy, white districts tend to focus more on policy while those representing economically disadvantaged and racially diverse districts may place more emphasis on service and/or allocation. A likely consequence is that the policy choices made by representatives reflect the policy preferences of the economically advantaged because policy representation is what those citizens want.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Perspectives on the Legislature and the Prospects of Accountability in Nigeria and South Africa【電子書籍】
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This book examines the problem of accountability in two African political systems, South Africa and Nigeria. Despite the principle of separation of powers and the doctrine of checks and balances among the institutions of governance, a burgeoning governance crisis stifles the potential of accountability and good governance. Legislative oversight in the two countries remains largely ineffective while citizens are left to face the consequences of the mismanagement of public resources by political elites. This book critically assesses how the legislative institutions in South Africa and Nigeria have been unable to harness the requisite constitutional powers to ensure accountability in government and explores the feasibility of their effectiveness. The book begins with a comparative analysis of the principles, tradition, and powers associated with legislative capability in South Africa and Nigeria. The chapters explore constitutional provisions and analyze the capacity of each legislature to function within its respective political environment. The book also examines the process and challenges associated with the various measures and mechanisms available for legislatures to ensure accountability in the two countries. Researchers, scholars and students of African politics will find this book useful in their understanding of the problems associated with the simmering governance crisis in South Africa and Nigeria.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Kentucky Legislature Two Decades of Change【電子書籍】[ Malcolm E. Jewell ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Twenty years ago the Kentucky General Assembly was one of the least powerful and least effective legislatures in the country, almost entirely dominated by the governor. Over the past two decades the legislature has changedーgradually and with little public attentionーinto a far more powerful, professional, and independent body.</p> <p>This book is a study of that process of change: its causes, the obstacles encountered, and the political and policy consequences. It is a study of changing relationships between governor and legislature, caused in part by less aggressive gubernatorial leadership and in part by the growing assertion of legislative independence. It is also a study of the men and women who initiated change and who play major roles in the legislature today.</p> <p>One important area of change has been in the kinds of persons elected to the legislature. Today's Kentucky legislators are more professional in their approach to legislative service, serve longer tenures, and are likely to be committed to long-term political careers. They work harder to become known in their districts, and they devote more time to constituency service.</p> <p>In preparing this study, Malcolm E. Jewell and Penny M. Miller interviewed and sent questionnaires to many past and present members of the Kentucky legislature, as well as examining election returns, roll call votes, and committee records. They also traced developments since the 1960s to provide historical perspective.</p> <p>The Kentucky General Assembly is not a "typical" legislature. It is less professional and meets less frequently than those in most states. But trends in the Kentucky legislature are typical of those in other states, and this book puts the changes in Kentucky into national perspective.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Impact of Legislatures A Quarter-Century of The Journal of Legislative Studies【電子書籍】
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The Impact of Legislatures brings together key articles and path-breaking scholarship published in <em>The Journal of Legislative Studies</em> during its first 25 years of publication, enabling the reader to make sense of the impact of legislatures in the modern world.</p> <p>Encompassing theory, comparative analysis, and county-based empirical studies, the volume examines the impact of legislatures as the key representative institutions of nations, addressing their relationships both to government and to the people. Legislatures are ubiquitous. They provide legitimacy to measures of public policy and to government. As such, they are key to how a nation is governed. But they do much more than confer legitimacy. They are generally multi-functional and functionally adaptable bodies, and are an essential link between citizen and government. However, scholarship on them has not been extensive and has often been descriptive and country- specific, limiting the capacity to make sense of them as a particular species of institution. The chapters in this volume reflect scholarship that helps the reader appreciate the significance of the place and consequences of legislatures, examining not only the relationship between the legislature and the executive, but also the oft-neglected relationship between legislatures and the people.</p> <p>Reflecting the growing body of research in the field of legislative studies, carried by <em>The Journal of Legislative Studies</em> since its inception in 1995, <em>The Impact of Legislatures</em> is essential reading for anyone wishing to understand the impact of legislatures in the world today.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Illusion of Accountability Transparency and Representation in American Legislatures【電子書籍】[ Justin H. Kirkland ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Does open governance strengthen democracy? The Illusion of Accountability contends that it does not. Leveraging a wealth of data from decades of legislative politics in the American states, the book assesses the causes and consequences of 'open meetings laws,' which require public access to proceedings in state legislatures. The work traces the roots of these laws back to the founding constitutions of some states and analyzes the waves of adoptions and exemptions to open meetings that occurred in the twentieth century. The book then examines the effects of these transparency laws on a host of politically consequential outcomes both inside and outside the legislature. This analysis consistently finds that open meetings do not influence legislators' behavior or citizens' capacity to alter that behavior. Instead, a link between transparent legislatures and an expanded system of organized interests is established. This illuminating work concludes that transparency reform only creates the illusion of accountability in state government.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Speeches of His Majesty Kamehameha IV. To the Hawaiian Legislature Enriched edition. Navigating Political Landscape: Hawaiian Monarch's Strategic Speeches【電子書籍】[ King of the Hawaiian Islands Kamehameha Iv ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "Speeches of His Majesty Kamehameha IV. To the Hawaiian Legislature," the eloquence and gravitas of King Kamehameha IV come to life through a collection of powerful addresses that encapsulate the political, social, and cultural landscapes of mid-19th century Hawaii. The book exhibits a formal yet impassioned literary style, revealing the king's visions for progress, governance, and the preservation of Hawaiian sovereignty amidst colonial pressures. Each speech not only serves as a testament to the king's leadership but also offers a window into the pressing issues of his era, including the rights of native Hawaiians, the establishment of a constitutional monarchy, and the quest for international recognition. Kamehameha IV, born Alexander Liholiho, was the son of Kamehameha III, and he ascended to the throne during a tumultuous period in Hawaiian history. His education abroad and exposure to Western political thought undoubtedly shaped his approach to leadership and reform. Passionate about preserving the Hawaiian culture and advocating for his people, Kamehameha IV's speeches reflect his dedication to the monarchy's ideals as well as his resolute stance against foreign encroachment. This collection is essential for readers interested in Hawaiian history, political rhetoric, and the evolution of governance in the Pacific. It not only enriches our understanding of Kamehameha IV's reign but also illuminates the challenges faced by indigenous leaders in preserving their nations during times of upheaval. Scholars and general readers alike will find this a compelling exploration of a king's commitment to his people. In this enriched edition, we have carefully created added value for your reading experience: - A comprehensive Introduction outlines these selected works' unifying features, themes, or stylistic evolutions. - A Historical Context section situates the works in their broader eraーsocial currents, cultural trends, and key events that underpin their creation. - A concise Synopsis (Selection) offers an accessible overview of the included texts, helping readers navigate plotlines and main ideas without revealing critical twists. - A unified Analysis examines recurring motifs and stylistic hallmarks across the collection, tying the stories together while spotlighting the different work's strengths. - Reflection questions inspire deeper contemplation of the author's overarching message, inviting readers to draw connections among different texts and relate them to modern contexts. - Lastly, our handーpicked Memorable Quotes distill pivotal lines and turning points, serving as touchstones for the collection's central themes.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Heavy Lifting The Job of the American Legislature【電子書籍】[ Alan Rosenthal ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>What makes for a "good" legislature? In <em>Heavy Lifting</em>, Alan Rosenthal traveled to five states, interviewing and shadowing legislators to find out the answer. Through this engaging narrative, the author first establishes the most important aspects of American state legislatures--what they are and how they do their jobs--and then graduates to the book’s central thesis: Rosenthal argues that, on the whole, the American legislature must be evaluated on the basis of its processes, not its products. He breaks down the legislative process into three principal functions: representing, lawmaking, and balancing the executive, and covers each in turn in the remainder of the book.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Curiosities of Puritan Nomenclature Enriched edition. Exploring the Legacy of Puritan Naming Traditions【電子書籍】[ Charles Wareing Endell Bardsley ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "Curiosities of Puritan Nomenclature," Charles Wareing Endell Bardsley intricately examines the unique and often peculiar naming conventions of Puritan society during the 16th and 17th centuries. Employing a blend of historical analysis and linguistic exploration, Bardsley delves into the societal influences and religious zeal that shaped these names, revealing not just their etymological roots but also their broader cultural implications. The book stands out for its meticulous organization, engaging prose, and comprehensive survey of an often-overlooked aspect of Puritan life, situating the discussion within the larger context of English social and religious upheaval during that era. Bardsley, a notable scholar with a keen interest in linguistics and cultural history, was deeply influenced by his own fascination with the complexities of language and identity. His profound understanding of the Puritanical mindset is underscored by his extensive research, granting him the authority to explore how nomenclature served as both a reflection and a reinforcement of the Puritan ethos. His academic background and passion for etymology fuel his desire to illuminate historical narratives through the lens of names bestowed in that tumultuous period. I highly recommend "Curiosities of Puritan Nomenclature" not only for historians and linguists but also for any reader intrigued by the intersection of culture and language. Bardsley's scholarly yet accessible approach makes the book both enlightening and enjoyable, ensuring a deep appreciation for the enduring legacy of Puritan nomenclature in contemporary society. In this enriched edition, we have carefully created added value for your reading experience: - Handーpicked Memorable Quotes shine a spotlight on moments of literary brilliance. - Interactive footnotes clarify unusual references, historical allusions, and archaic phrases for an effortless, more informed read.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Influence of Campaign Contributions in State Legislatures The Effects of Institutions and Politics【電子書籍】[ Lynda W. Powell ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Campaign contributions are widely viewed as a corrupting influence but most scholarly research concludes that they have marginal impact on legislative behavior. Lynda W. Powell shows that contributions have considerable influence in some state legislatures but very little in others. Using a national survey of legislators, she develops an innovative measure of influence and delineates the factors that explain this great variation across the 99 U.S. state legislative chambers.</p> <p>Powell identifies the personal, institutional, and political factors that determine how much time a legislator devotes to personal fundraising and fundraising for the caucus. She shows that the extent of donors' legislative influence varies in ways corresponding to the same variations in the factors that determine fundraising time. She also confirms a link between fundraising and lobbying with evidence supporting the theory that contributors gain access to legislators based on donations, Powell's findings have important implications for the debate over the role of money in the legislative process.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Bamboos of the World Annotated Nomenclature and Literature of the Species and the Higher and Lower Taxa【電子書籍】[ D. Ohrnberger ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Bamboos constitute one of a few select categories of plants which are taxonomically related, very rich in species and of vital economic and ecological importance. Since the early 20th century the accepted number of species of bamboos, world wide, has tripled. However, until now information was scattered through numerous, often not easily available publications.The Bamboos of the World, is the first comprehensive (taxonomic as well as horticultural) reference work that provides basic information on bamboos world wide, whether they are wild or cultivated, well-known or rather unknown. The work, based on bamboo literature, facilitates access to further data by citation and a comprehensive bibliography. Among the main data included are botanical names with synonyms, and geographical distribution of genera and species, varieties with their distinctive characters, common bamboo names, plant introductions to the West, plant size and uses. The distribution of genera is mapped.The Bamboos of the World presents a wealth of essential information in an accessible and structured manner. It gives the opportunity to check under what names, and where, relevant information on any bamboo can be found. For the researcher with management and development interests it provides a convenient means of basing bamboo resource on a sound understanding of generic and species relationships, with names that appear in earlier literature put into context. The work should prove to be invaluable for those interested in the morphology, taxonomy, distribution and cultivation of bamboos. It should support botanical, forestry, horticultural and ecological research, training and resource management.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Right of Instruction and Representation in American Legislatures, 1778 to 1900【電子書籍】[ Peverill Squire ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><em>The Right of Instruction and Representation in American Legislatures, 1778 to 1900</em> provides a comprehensive analysis of the role constituent instructions played in American politics for more than a hundred years after its founding. Constituent instructions were more widely issued than previously thought, and members of state legislatures and Congress were more likely to obey them than political scientists and historians have assumed. Peverill Squire expands our understanding of constituent instructions beyond a handful of high-profile cases, through analyses of two unique data sets: one examining more than 5,000 actionable communications (instructions and requests) sent to state legislators by constituents through town meetings, mass meetings, and local representative bodies; the other examines more than 6,600 actionable communications directed by state legislatures to their state’s congressional delegations. He draws the data, examples, and quotes almost entirely from original sources, including government documents such as legislative journals, session laws, town and county records, and newspaper stories, as well as diaries, memoirs, and other contemporary sources. Squire also includes instructions to and from Confederate state legislatures in both data sets. In every respect, the Confederate state legislatures mirrored the legislatures that preceded and followed them.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Legislature of Brazil An Analysis of Its Policy-Making and Public Engagement Roles【電子書籍】
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This book develops a critical analysis of the Brazilian legislature, specifically the role of its lower chamber, the Chamber of Deputies, in policy making and how this combines with its public engagement role, namely in terms of promoting participation and transparency. The book draws from Nelson Polsby’s theoretical conceptualization about transformative and arena legislatures. The purpose is not to reach a consensus about the exact categorisation of the legislature in Polsby’s classification. On the contrary, the chapters are mainly concerned in challenging this classification through interdisciplinary perspectives drawn from within the legislative studies in Brazil.</p> <p>The book’s first chapters introduce the reader to an historical overview of the Brazilian legislature’s policy making and organization, identifying its role in proposing public policies and scrutinising proposals from the Executive Branch. The subsequent chapters focus on its public engagement role and address contemporary elements ? such as political participation and transparency ? and how these interlink, or not, with legislative practices and influence the production of law. The book provides a unique insight into the operation and power of the legislature of a key global power, Brazil, in a presidential political system context. The chapters originally published as a special issue in the <em>Journal of Legislative Studies</em>.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
