Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT In the past 25 years, democracy has spread throughout the globe. Many scholars have investigated the causes, implications, and prospects of this global movement towards democracy. Most of these scholars have emphasized internal political processes as the driving force of this movement, while eschewing international factors. I argue that international factors, specifically regional organizations, can have an important role in both the transition to and the consolidation of democracy. 1 elucidate several theoretically-derived causal mechanisms which could link regional organizations to the promotion and/or protection of democracy. Although the instruments which influence transitions to democracy, as opposed to the consolidation of democracy, differ, the end result is that these organizations can manipulate the costs and benefits of democracy to important societal groups such as business elites or the military. Moreover, 1 argue that these domestic elites will utilize membership in or accession to regional organizations to advance the cause of democracy. Regional organizations are thus an important policy tool for elites in these nascent democracies. 1 test this argument in two ways. First, I undertake two statistical analyses using a data set of all countries from 1950-1992. These analyses test for an association between regional organizations and both democratic transitions and democratic consolidation. 11 Second. I investigate five cases (Hungary, Peru, Greece, Paraguay, and Turkey) to examine the actual causal processes behind any statistical association between regional organizations and democratization. I find that there is a strong statistical relationship between membership in certain regional organizations and transitions to democracy. I also find a strong relationship between joining these same regional organizations and the consolidation of democracy. The case studies illustrate that all of the hypothesized causal mechanisms function in at least one of the cases, although some are more common than others. These findings are not only important to international relations theory and comparative politics, but provide loose guidelines for policy-makers who wish to utilize these regional organizations to promote and/or protect democracy. Ill Dedicated to my mother and father, who taught me the importance of education, hard work, and modesty; and who demonstrated the value of all three. IV ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Many graduate students are lucky to find one wonderful advisor with whom they may share ideas and ask for help during the difficult times of dissertation writing. I have been lucky enough to have three advisors who have graciously helped me through this process. I wish to thank Ed Mansfield, who has helped guide this project from the outset. I thank him for all of the time and effort he has spent not only on this dissertation, but in shaping my outlook as a scholar. His hard work and dedication have been an inspiration to me as I begin my own life in the academy. I hope to someday be as valuable as an advisor as he has been to me. I am also grateful to Don Sylvan, who was a constant source of feedback on both ideas and written work. “Coach” has also guided me through graduate school with valuable all-purpose advice for which I am forever in his debt. I also wish to thank Tim Frye, who pushed me to think more theoretically about my puzzle. He has exposed me to new literature and ideas which have greatly improved this project. My graduate colleagues have also been of assistance throughout many stages of this project, including reading drafts and listening to me drone on at length. David Bearce, Pat McDonald. Hiro Fukushima, Kathy Powers, Scott Orr, Kevin Sweeney, and Louise Steen-Sprang have all borne this job with good humor while providing insightful comments. I have also received valuable feedback from seminar participants at the following institutions: Colorado, SUNY-Binghamton, American, Maryland, Harvard, and Wisconsin. In addition, Dan Drezner, Dani Reiter, Beth Simmons, Joshua Goldstein, Deborah Gemer, Phil Schrodt, Helen Milner, and Leigh Payne have provided feedback on drafts of various chapters. I would like to thank my family, including my mother, father, sisters, nieces, and nephew, who all provided emotional support which helped to sustain my sanity throughout this process. Finally, my wife, Elizabeth Erickson Pevehouse, has endured my dissertation writing with an extraordinary amount of patience, kindness, and care. Without her love and support, I can honestly say this project would never have been completed. VITA March 29. 1973 ...........................................

  • The Tradition of Ancient Greek Democracy and Its Importance for Modem Democracy
    DEMOCRAC AHMOKPATI The Tradition of Ancient Greek Democracy and its Importance for Modern Democracy Mogens Herman Hansen The Tradition of Ancient Greek Democracy and its Importance for Modem Democracy B y M ogens H erman H ansen Historisk-filosofiske Meddelelser 93 Det Kongelige Danske Videnskabernes Selskab The Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters Copenhagen 2005 Abstract The two studies printed here investigate to what extent there is a con­ nection between ancient and modem democracy. The first study treats the tradition of ancient Greek democracy, especially the tradition of Athenian democracy from ca. 1750 to the present day. It is argued that in ideology there is a remarkable resemblance between the Athenian democracy in the Classical period and the modem liberal democracy in the 19th and 20th centuries. On the other hand no direct tradition con­ nects modem liberal democracy with its ancient ancestor. Not one single Athenian institution has been copied by a modem democracy, and it is only from ca. 1850 onwards that the ideals cherished by the Athenian democrats were referred to approvingly by modem cham­ pions of democracy. It is in fact the IT technology and its potential for a return to a more direct form of democracy which has given rise to a hitherto unmatched interest in the Athenian democratic institutions. This is the topic of the second study in which it is argued that the focus of the contemporary interest is on the Athenian system of sortition and rotation rather than on the popular assembly.

  • Lessons for Emergent Post-Modern Democrats by Ken White
    Extreme Democracy 90 8 The dead hand of modern democracy: Lessons for emergent post-modern democrats By Ken White et us not be too hasty to bury the present; it’s not dead yet, and a pre- mortem might provide some useful information. Those of us moving L ahead ought to remember Santayana’s famous dictum, and meditate— deeply—on what, and whom, we might leave behind. Emergent democracy can augment and, perhaps, even gradually supplant outmoded forms of self-governance, but only if we appreciate why those forms were once “moded”—suited to their times and uses. After all, Democracy 2.0 (if we consider Athens “1.0”) has enjoyed a pretty good 220- year run, even with all its failings. Considering which critical functions of modern democracy deserve preservation in intent, if not in form, offers the opportunity to appreciate the rich complexity of democratic self-governance and its astonishingly diverse modes of participation and action. By attending to what made modern democracy successful we might learn a few lessons; extract some insights from the old model; and identify a few pitfalls we ought to avoid, even as we cheerfully acknowledge the inevitability of creating a new set of pitfalls. I draw on personal experience in arriving at this conclusion. Working in the United States on democratic reforms (including campaign financing) for many years, I came to appreciate the difference between “reform” and “redesign.” Although the former may occur more often in some limited way, the promise of the latter drives truly significant change. As Extreme Democracy 91 Buckminster Fuller said: “You never change things by fighting against the existing reality.

  • E-Participation: a Quick Overview of Recent Qualitative Trends
    DESA Working Paper No. 163 ST/ESA/2020/DWP/163 JANUARY 2020 E-participation: a quick overview of recent qualitative trends Author: David Le Blanc ABSTRACT This paper briefly takes stock of two decades of e-participation initiatives based on a limited review of the academic literature. The purpose of the paper is to complement the results of the e-government Survey 2020. As such, the emphasis is on aspects that the e-government survey (based on analysis of e-government portals and on quantitative indicators) does not capture directly. Among those are the challenges faced by e-participation initiatives and key areas of attention for governments. The paper maps the field of e-par- ticipation and related activities, as well as its relationships with other governance concepts. Areas of recent development in terms of e-participation applications are briefly reviewed. The paper selectively highlights conclusions from the literature on different participation tools, as well as a list of key problematic areas for policy makers. The paper concludes that while e-participation platforms using new technologies have spread rapidly in developed countries in the first decade of the 2000s and in developing countries during the last 10 years, it is not clear that their multiplication has translated into broader or deeper citizen participation. Be- yond reasons related to technology access and digital skills, factors such as lack of understanding of citizens’ motivations to participate and the reluctance of public institutions to genuinely share agenda setting and decision-making power seem to play an important role in the observed limited progress.

    RESEARCH PAPERS FACTORS AFFECTING PARTICIPATION OF PRESERVICE TEACHERS IN E-DEMOCRACY By SERKAN ŞENDAĞ * SACIP TOKER ** * Associate Professor, Computer Education and Instructional Technology, School of Education, Mersin University, Mersin, Turkey. ** Ph.D holder, Instructional Technology, Department of Administrative and Organizational Studies, College of Education, Wayne State University, Detroit, Michigan, USA. ABSTRACT This study aimed to reveal the factors associated with the participation of preservice teachers in e-democracy. It was designed as a correlational study and 1,519 preservice teachers from a teacher preparation program in Turkey participated in it by completing a 54-item questionnaire. As a result, three major factors for involvement in e-democracy emerged: knowledge and environment, ethics, and anxiety. In addition, two types of participation were revealed: anonymous and onymous. The results of the study showed that anonymous participation correlates positively with Political Knowledge, and negatively with Current State of Politics and Digital Integrity. Those who have mobile technologies with internet connection are more likely to participate anonymously in e-democracy. On the other hand, Onymous participation, correlates positively with Fear of Self-expression, and negatively with Political Knowledge and Digital Citizenship. Males were shown to be more prone to both types of participation than females. Internet usage frequency was a common variable triggering both types of participation. The paper ends with recommendations for further research. Keywords: E-Democracy, E-Participation, Preservice Teachers, Explanatory Higher-Order Factor Analysis, Multiple and Quantile Regression. INTRODUCTION be supported by the Internet, which will alter representation Now-a-days, several factors are urging higher education as well as politicians’ attitudes toward the public (Cardoso, institutions to change, such as internalization, massification, Cunha & Nascimento, 2006).

  • South Korea: Legal and Political Overtones of Defensive Democracy in a Divided Country South Korea Has Already Passed Samuel
    South Korea: Legal and Political Overtones of Defensive Democracy in a Divided Country KWANGSUP KIM South Korea has already passed Samuel Huntington’s two-turnover test for democratic consolidation, which occurred with the peaceful transitions of power in 1992 and 1996. This occurred despite the enduring military tension on the divided Korean peninsula. Huntington said that when a nation transitions from an “emergent democracy” to a “stable democracy,” its ruling parties must undergo two democratic and peaceful turnovers.1 However, there still exists heated controversy over whether the executive power violates democratic rule and human rights in the name of national security. This is despite the fact that the military authoritarian regime perished in 1987 and subsequent civilian governments have accomplished democratic reform. On November 6, 2013, the Ministry of Justice in South Korea petitioned to the Constitutional Court to rule on dissolving the minor Unified Progressive Party (UPP) for violating the “basic rules of democracy.”2 The ministry’s filing comes after the prosecution of indicted lawmaker, Lee Seok-ki of the UPP on September 5, 2013, on charges of conspiracy to stage a rebellion, incitement and sympathizing with North Korea, and infringement of the Kwangsup Kim is a Ph.D. Fellow at Center for Constitutional Democracy of Indiana University Maurer School of Law, an academic director and vice chairperson of the Committee of Women’s Rights at the Human Rights & Welfare Institution of Korea., and a Member of the Board of Directors at The Correction Welfare Society of Korea. 1 Samuel P.

  • From Participatory Democracy to Digital Democracy
    Fast Capitalism ISSN 1930-014X Volume 1 • Issue 2 • 2005 doi:10.32855/fcapital.200502.003 From Participatory Democracy to Digital Democracy Mark Kann Tom Hayden posted on his website, http://www.tomhayden.com, an article he coauthored with Dick Flacks to commemorate the fortieth anniversary of the Port Huron Statement. The two SDS founders concluded, “Perhaps the most important legacy of the Port Huron Statement is the fact that it introduced the concept of participatory democracy to popular discourse and practice.” The concept of participatory democracy encompassed values such as equality, decentralization, and consensus decision-making. It provided direction for “all those trying to create a world where each person has a voice in the decisions affecting his or her life.” [1] In this article, I suggest that Port Huron’s concept of participatory democracy included some ideas that were potentially antithetical to democracy and that potential, unfortunately, is being fulfilled in contemporary theories of digital democracy. The Port Huron Statement Revisited The Port Huron Statement contained two underlying themes that potentially subverted democratic equality. One was the notion that the American people were fundamentally flawed, most apparently, by their apathy. The other was that the best means to eliminate this flaw was to follow the lead of rational, deliberative activists. Both themes could be (and would be) used to justify political inequalities. Port Huron’s student-authors expressed a dim view of American citizens. The American people had closed minds. They exhibited a foolish confidence that the nation could muddle through its problems. They harbored a false sense of contentment, “a glaze above deeply felt anxieties,” arising out of loneliness, isolation, and estrangement.

  • No Profit, No Hierarchy. a Comparative Study of the Lower Left (Version 3
    No profit, no hierarchy: A comparative study of the 'lower left' Dr. Edurne Scott Loinaz Version 3: November 2019. With thanks for feedback and suggestions from ​ Mayel de Borniol, Ruth Kinna, James Lewis, Horatio Trobinson and Michele Kipiel. 1 What is the lower left? The lower left is defined by anarchist writer Margaret Killjoy (2016) as “any society that does not ​ ​ desire a state and does desire economic cooperation … [which] is unique in its potential for internal solidarity.” All organisations included in this study (and from hereon defined as lower left) met the following criteria: ● Autonomous (do not rely on state funding for operations); ● Use horizontal organisation for planning and decision making (non-hierarchical, eg., AK Press’ ‘No boss, no managers, no bullshit’ policy); ● Not for profit; ● Anti-capitalist (organisations run as worker-owned cooperatives, by volunteers, by crowdfunding etc., and which have no aims for ‘job creation’ a.k.a. the perpetuation of ‘bullshit jobs’); ​ ​ ● Are actively forming new social institutions and transforming oppressive ones (as opposed to lower left groups set up to resist and dismantle the current establishment, which though indispensable to the former group, are beyond the scope of this study). What makes organisations in the lower left different to every other organisation? This study, conducted between March and September 2018, aimed to answer this question using a comparative design which works best when the organisations studied are maximally different: hence how lower left organisations are different to groups organised by capitalists and authoritarians. 66 lower left organisations were included in the study (more details to follow).

  • Measuring Polyarchy Across the Globe, 1900–2017

By measuring the five compo- nents of Elected Officials, Clean Elections, Associational Autonomy, Inclusive Citi- zenship, and Freedom of Expression and Alternative Sources of Information separately, we anchor this new index directly in Dahl’s(1971) extremely influential theoretical framework. The paper describes how the five polyarchy components were measured and provides the rationale for how to aggregate them to the polyarchy scale.

  • Participatory Democracy and Micropolitics in Manbij
    REPORT ARAB POLITICS BEYOND THE UPRISINGS Participatory Democracy and Micropolitics in Manbij An Unthinkable Revolution FEBRUARY 21, 2017 — YASSER MUNIF PAGE 1 Manbij, a city in northern Syria, hosted a compelling example of successful grassroots governance during the two-year period between the Syrian regime’s withdrawal from the city in 2012 and the Islamic State’s takeover in 2014. Drawing on hundreds of interviews conducted in Manbij in 2013, the author shows that the city established an innovative local political system during this interregnum. The new local government faced significant challenges, and made many mistakes, which the author discusses in detail. But those mistakes were not the undoing of Manbij’s revolutionaries. Instead, as in many other places in Syria, external forces derailed their efforts, buoyed by a Western narrative that seemed unable to even conceive of the kind of peaceful revolution under construction in Manbij. Still, Manbij’s experience holds important lessons—and could yet be the foundation for more participatory governance in Syria over the long term. Twenty miles south of the Turkish border, on a plateau to the west of the Euphrates, lies the Syrian city of Manbij.1 With a population of two hundred thousand, it is located halfway between the cities of Aleppo and Raqqa, the latter of which is the de facto capital of the Islamic State. Manbij is a millennia- old city with a history, like so many urban places in Syria, of religious and ethnic diversity; it has passed through the hands of many empires, ranging from the Assyrians to the Ottomans.
