University of Pennsylvania Press America at the Ballot Box
Book SynopsisElections are, and always have been, the lifeblood of American democracy. Often raucous and sharply contentious, sometimes featuring grand debates about the nation''s future, and invariably full of dramatic moments, elections offer insight into the character and historical evolution of American politics. America at the Ballot Box uses the history of presidential elections to illuminate American political democracy and its development from the early Republic to the late twentieth century.Some of the contributions in America at the Ballot Box focus on elections that resulted in dramatic political change, including Jefferson''s defeat of Adams in 1800, the 1860 election of Lincoln, and Reagan''s 1980 landslide victory. Others concentrate on contests whose importance lies more in the way they illuminate the broad, underlying processes of political change, such as the corruption controversy of Cleveland''s acrimonious election in 1884 or the advent of television adverTrade Review"An exciting collection of new research from major scholars that makes it clear why the historical study of presidential elections should be of interest to all of us." * David Greenberg, Rutgers University *

Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd Research Handbook on Legal Pluralism and EU Law
Book SynopsisThe Research Handbook on Legal Pluralism and EU Law explores the phenomenon of overlapping legal systems within the European Union, the nature of their interactions, and how they deal with the difficult question of the legal hierarchy between them. The contributors reflect on the history, sociology and legal scholarship on constitutional and legal pluralism, and develop this further in the light of the challenges currently facing the EU.Addressing pluralism within policy areas such as EMU, migration, and external relations, and applying different perspectives - from the constitutionalist to the Foucauldian - this diverse collection of thinkers about EU law ask whether a pluralist perspective is part of the problem or part of the solution. Contributors offer both critical and positive assessments of the value of pluralist thinking in the EU whilst addressing major issues facing the EU now - Brexit, populism, migration, the Euro-crisis - and asking what lessons can be learned from and for pluralism.This Research Handbook will be invaluable reading for legal academics specialising in EU law, EU constitutional Law, Legal Theory, and political scientists focused on legal aspects of EU integration. Students on advanced courses in EU law and EU constitutional law, as well as judges at the Court of Justice and higher national courts will also find this stimulating reading.Contributors include: C.M. Amhlaigh, M. Avbelj, M. Cahill, G. Cornelisse, G. Davies, N. de Boer, P. Eleftheriadis, T. Flynn, M. Goldmann, C. Kaupa, R.D. Kelemen, P.F. Kjaer, D. Kochenov, J. Lawrence, P. Leino, L. Leppavirta, J. Lindeboom, P. Lindseth, G. Martinico, F.-X. Millet, J. Priban, S. Sankari, K. Tuori, N. WalkerTrade Review'This collection will be of real value to all those interested in the difficult and topical questions of legal pluralism in the European Union. At a time of significant stress within the EU economic, political and legal orders, the essays address a range of themes and topics ranging from broad theoretical and constitutional reflections to more focused case studies of EMU, citizenship, migration and border control, and the EU's relations with non-EU states. The editors have assembled an impressive array of scholars from across the EU to present their particular understandings and critiques of the idea of legal and constitutional pluralism, to interrogate the relationship of legal pluralism to democracy, and to investigate the significance of these ideas in the European Union at present.' --Grainne de Burca, New York University, School of Law, US'Legal pluralism has become a central concept by which to unpack EU and transnational law. It remains, however, an under-applied and under-theorised framework. This Research Handbook decisively fills this gap, developing pluralism's theoretical foundations in novel directions through an outstanding group of contributors and using the concept to re-visit active debates in EU law and politics. I would recommend it to anyone as the definitive guide to legal pluralism in the EU for decades to come.' --Mark Dawson, Hertie School of Governance, GermanyTable of ContentsContents: 1.
