Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2007 im Fachbereich Politik - Politisches System Deutschlands, Note: 1,00, Carl von Ossietzky Universität Oldenburg, Veranstaltung: Wie viel Gemeinschaft braucht die Demokratie? , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Im Jahr 2006 fanden in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland fünf Landtagswahlen statt. Die Wahlbeteiligung lag bei keiner der fünf Wahlen über 60% (Bartsch 2006). In Sachsen-Anhalt gaben nur 44,4% der Wahlberechtigten ihre Stimme ab. Damit war zum ersten Mal bei einer Landtagswahl die Gruppe der Nichtwähler größer als die der Wahlberechtigten, die ihre Stimme abgaben (ebd.). In Baden-Württemberg lag im gleichen Jahr die Wahlbeteiligung bei 53,4%. Dieser Wert stellt die niedrigste Wahlbeteiligung dar, die je bei einer Landtagswahl in den alten Bundesländern gemessen wurde. Von einem spezifisch ostdeutschen Problem lässt sich also kaum sprechen. Vielmehr spiegelt diese Momentaufnahme des Jahres 2006 in Deutschland die Entwicklung in vielen westeuropäischen Staaten wieder. Bei den beiden letzten Parlamentswahlen in Großbritannien wurden die beiden niedrigsten Wahlbeteiligungsraten seit 1918 gemessen. Bei den letzten Wahlen zum österreichischen Nationalparlament wurde ebenfalls ein historischer Tiefstand erreicht. Das Gleiche gilt für die französischen Präsidentschaftswahlen im Jahre 20022. Die vier genannten Staaten können ohne Zweifel als postmoderne, hochgradig individualisierte Gesellschaften bezeichnet werden. Geht mit fortschreitender Individualisierung nun eine sinkende Partizipationsbereitschaft einher? Ulrich Beck sieht einen solchen Zusammenhang. Er bezeichnet politische Apathie als eine mögliche Folge von Individualisierungsprozessen. Für Benjamin Barber sind der Liberalismus und die damit verbundene Betonung von individuellen Freiheitsrechten die Ursachen für die sinkende Bereitschaft der Bürger zur Beteiligung an politischen Prozessen. Einen Kontrast zur eingangs angedeuteten Entwicklung bilden die Ergebnisse des Zweiten Volksentscheid Rankings der Initiative Mehr Demokratie. In diesem heißt es, dass die Zahl von Volksinitiativen und Volksbegehren in der Bundesrepublik kontinuierlich wachse. Ein klares Bild von der Höhe der Motivation der Bürger zur Beteiligung ist auf den ersten Blick also nicht zu erkennen. Daher wird im Rahmen dieser Arbeit untersucht, wie sich die politische Partizipation in Deutschland insgesamt entwickelt hat und ob die von Kommunitariern wie Benjamin Barber attestierte politische Apathie in der Bundesrepublik heute wirklich vorzufinden ist.

In contemporary life, the marketplace has emerged as an important arena for the practice of politics. Concerns about personal and family well-being as well as ethical or political assessment of favorable and unfavorable business and government practices become part and parcel of the marketplace of politics. This volume describes this phenomenon as political consumerism, reflecting an understanding of politics as a product embedded in a complex social and normative context. Politics, Products, and Markets is the first general study of political consumerism. It asks fundamental questions, including what is new and what is old about the phenomenon. The authors discuss the mediating role of political consumerism in the problematic relationship between markets and morality. They explore whether institutional arrangements have been developed to permit consumers and producers to assume ethical responsibility for their choices and behavior. They ask why political consumerism is presently on the rise. And they investigate the relationship between globalization and political consumerism. Part 1, "Making Money Morally," discusses how political consumerism challenges the perceived division between private interests pursued by private actors in the market and public interests pursued through political means. Part 2, "Consumer Choices and Setting of the Agenda of Politics," contains examples of how political consumerism sets the agenda of politics and discusses its democratic quality. Part 3, "Building Responsible Institutions in Multi-Risk Society," has as its central theme the development of new political consumer institutions. Part 4, "Politicizing Consumers and Change in Politics," studies the characteristics of political consumers and raises the question of whether political consumerism really is politics. This volume will be of interest to social scientists, social activists, and policy institutes.

Politicians often talk about "strategy." What do they mean by this term? Where does the development of political strategies take place? Who is involved in strategic processes? Which methods are used? The attempt to answer these questions, leads to an interesting look behind the scenes of the political arena. At the basis of this exploration are interviews with ministers, members of strategy units, party politicians, academics and journalists from Denmark, Germany, Great Britain and the United States, that have been conducted by four research teams. Their analyses document a common understanding of strategy in the political realm of the four countries. They also show how the meaning of strategy is shaped by the political system and the political culture of a country.

Die Rolle der Massenmedien im politischen Prozess demokratischer Staaten ist seit einigen Jahren einem grundlegenden Wandel unterworfen. Presse, Hörfunk und Fernsehen wurden lange Zeit als weitgehend passive Vermittlungsinstanzen wahr genommen, die den Publizitätsinteressen demokratischer Politik in einer primär „dienenden“ Funktion gegenüber treten. Seit den 1990er Jahren werden die Massenmedien auch in den europäischen Demokratien als zunehmend „eigenmächtige“ Akteure und folgenreich institutionalisierter Handlungskontext demokratischer Politikherstellung erkennbar. Manche Autoren sprechen von der Entwicklung regelrechter „Mediendemokratien“. Dieser PVS-Sonderband bietet eine umfassende Bestandsaufnahme der Problemdiagnosen, Zustandsbeschreibungen und Wirkungsanalysen rund um die Mediendemokratie. Die Beiträge bilanzieren den Forschungsstand in einzelnen Bereichen der Politikwissenschaft einerseits und zeigen andererseits Fragestellungen und Perspektiven für künftige Forschungsbemühungen auf.

Containing almost 200 entries from 'accountability' to the 'Westminster model' the Encyclopedia of Democratic Thought explores all the ideas that matter to democracy past, present and future. It is destined to become the first port-of-call for all students, teachers and researchers of political science interested in democratic ideas, democratic practice, and the quality of democratic governance. The Encyclopedia provides extensive coverage of all the key concepts of democratic thought written by a stellar team of distinguished international contributors. The Encyclopedia draws on every tradition of democratic thought, as well as developing new thinking, in order to provide full coverage of the key democratic concepts and engage with their practical implications for the conduct of democratic politics in the world today. In this way, it brings every kind of democratic thinking to bear on the challenges facing contemporary democracies and on the possibilities of the democratic future. The Encyclopedia is global in scope and responds in detail to the democratic revolution of recent decades. Referring both to the established democratic states of Western Europe, North America and Australasia, and to the recent democracies of Latin America, Eastern and Central Europe, Africa and Asia, classical democratic concerns are related to new democracies, and to important changes in the older democracies. Supplemented by full bibliographical information, extensive cross-referencing and suggestions for further reading, the Encyclopedia of Democratic Thought is a unique work of reference combining the expertise of many of the world's leading political scientists, political sociologists and political philosophers. It will be welcomed as an essential resource for both teaching and for independent study, and as a solid starting point both for further research and wider exploration.

Throughout the world, the threat of climate change is pressing governments to accelerate the deployment of technologies to generate low carbon electricity or heat. But this is frequently leading to controversy, as energy and planning policies are revised to support new energy sources or technologies (e.g. offshore wind, tidal, bioenergy or hydrogen energy) and communities face the prospect of unfamiliar, often large-scale energy technologies being sited near to their homes. Policy makers in many countries face tensions between 'streamlining' planning procedures, engaging with diverse publics to address what is commonly conceived as 'NIMBY' (not in my back yard) opposition, and the need to maintain democratic, participatory values in planning systems. This volume provides a timely, international review of research on public engagement, in contexts of diverse, innovative energy technologies. Public engagement is conceived broadly - as the interaction between how developers and other key actors engage with publics about energy technologies (including assumptions held about the methods used, such as the provision of financial benefits or the holding of deliberative events), and how individuals and groups engage with energy policies and projects (including indirectly through the media and directly through emotional and behavioural responses). The book's contributors are leading experts in the UK, Europe, North and South America and Australia drawn from a variety of relevant social science disciplinary perspectives. The book makes a significant contribution to our existing knowledge, as well as providing interested professionals, policymakers and members of the public with a timely overview of the critical issues involved in public engagement with low carbon energy technologies.
