Budgeting Democracy
Author: Jonathan David Kahn
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 1501736817
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
There was a time when no government in the United States had a coherent budget system. Jonathan Kahn tells the story of how a small, energetic band of reformers waged a successful campaign in Progressive-era America to introduce fundamentally new systems of public budgeting into many cities, nearly every state, and ultimately the federal government. It is a story that has remarkable resonances today. Kahn suggests that budget reform transformed understandings of citizenship and political accountability while facilitating a conceptual leap from seeing government as a random agglomeration of administrative fiefdoms to envisioning a coherent, interrelated, and unitary state. Kahn argues that public budgets are more than simply technical tools for allocating government resources. They are also cultural constructions that shape public life, state institutions, and the relations between the two. Reformers'invented'the budget, Kahn explains, and then marketed it through exhortations, exhibits, and demonstrations that were replicated throughout the United States. Kahn explains how budget reform narrowed and contained popular engagement with government by promoting new notions of accountability and representation based on passive oversight rather than active political participation. Finally, budget reform transformed federal governance by creating the apparatus to conceive, order, and control a unified executive branch.

Citizenship in the Arab World
Author: Gianluca Paolo Parolin
Publisher: Amsterdam University Press
ISBN: 9089640452
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
Subject: The book is the fruit of five years of on-site research on citizenship in the Arab world. It takes a broader legal perspective to the multifaceted reality of nationality and citizenship. The methodology employed builds on the interdisciplinary approach of comparative legal studies, and brings in theories, concepts and insights from anthropology, political science, Arab and Islamic studies, linguistics and sociology. The work relies on a broad range of Western and Arab references, and all sources and documents were directly accessed in their original languages; this is particularly relevant for Arab legislation (all in-text reference has been translated by the author, and the original has been inserted using scientific transliteration). -- Website OAPEN Library.
