Abstract

Le président des États-Unis serait l'homme – ou la femme – le plus puissant de la planète. Cette perception commune, sans cesse alimentée par les productions d'Hollywood, n'en est pas moins fausse. Contraint par les multiples obstacles des checks and balances constitutionnels, le président doit notamment faire face au Législatif le plus puissant et le plus autonome du monde. La séparation des pouvoirs a en effet permis au Congrès de se construire comme un partenaire indomptable, et souvent capricieux, de la Présidence sans que celle-ci ne puisse intervenir. Le contrôle législatif ainsi créé et protégé repose en particulier – c'est là l'argument central de cet ouvrage – sur la chambre haute, le Sénat, qui dispose en son sein de multiples ressources procédurales lui permettant de bloquer les initiatives présidentielles. Le filibuster, la possibilité laissée à un seul sénateur de s'exprimer sans interruption et sans autre limite que celle de sa résistance physique, en est l'exemple le plus célèbre. Au pays de la séparation des pouvoirs, il existe ainsi un contrôle politique direct, souvent brutal, qui s'exerce en permanence sur l'Exécutif, reléguant le président, dans le meilleur des cas, à un statut d'habile négociateur, bien loin de l'image de héraut du monde libre. En mobilisant le droit constitutionnel, l'histoire et la science politique, cet essai se propose de mettre en relief les modalités d'action du Congrès, et notamment du Sénat, pour souligner que la Présidence impériale est au contraire, pour reprendre le mot de Gerald Ford, bien souvent en péril.

Abstract

Leading experts examine and compare the changing role of political parties and their leadership in 14 modern democracies. It is shown how they are increasingly following a presidential logic of governance, through which leadership is becoming more central and more powerful, but also increasingly dependent on appeal to the mass public.

Abstract

Arbitration has become an increasingly important mechanism for dispute resolution, both in the domestic and international setting. Despite its importance as a form of state-sanctioned dispute resolution, it has largely remained outside the spotlight of constitutional law. This landmark work represents one of the first attempts to synthesize the fields of arbitration law and constitutional law. Drawing on the author's extensive experience as a scholar in arbitration law who has lectured and studied around the world, the book offers unique insights into how arbitration law implicates issues such as separation of powers, federalism and individual liberties.

Abstract

Explaining outcomes of decision-making at the European level has occupied scholars since the late 1950s, yet analysts continue to disagree on the most important factors in the process. In this book, Arne Niemann examines the interplay of the supranational, governmental and non-governmental actors involved in EU integration, along with the influence of domestic, supranational and international structures. The book restates and develops neofunctionalism as an approach for explaining decisions in the European Union and assesses the usefulness of the revised neofunctionalist framework on three case studies: the emergence and development of the PHARE programme, the reform of the Common Commercial Policy, and the communitarisation of visa, asylum and immigration policy. Niemann argues that this classic theory can be modified in such a way as to draw on a wider theoretical repertoire and that many micro-level concepts can sensibly be accommodated within his larger neofunctionalist framework.

Abstract

The Powers of the Union develops and tests a new theory of centralization and bureaucratization in the European Union. Using original data spanning five decades and a multi-method approach, Franchino argues that most EU laws rely extensively on national administrations for policy implementation and provide for ample national discretionary authority, while limiting tightly the involvement of the European Commission. However, when Council ministers do not share the same policy objectives, some have the incentive to limit national executive discretion and to rely more on the Commission. Majority voting facilitates this outcome, but the limited policy expertise of supranational bureaucrats and their biased views impede extensive supranational delegation. Finally, the European Parliament systematically attempts to limit national discretion, especially when its views differ from ministerial opinions, and tries to increase the Commission's policy autonomy. The book contributes towards understanding political-bureaucratic relations and evaluates the implications for EU democracy and subsidiarity.

Abstract

Studying Public Policy examines three dimensions of efforts to engage and resolve public problems: policy actors, institutions, and ideas. Using this focus, the book overviews past efforts to understand public policy-making, outlines the different stages of the policy-making process, and discusses the principal elements and patterns of policy dynamics. Developing an analytical framework of the subject, the text examines the theoretical and conceptual foundations of, and approaches used in, policy sciences giving students a solid basis for understanding public policy. This edition has been fully updated with new developments in the field and revised with clear language and an easy-to-understand structure, making it the most current, student-friendly resource available.
