Abstract

This book is an adaptation of a research presented at the Micaela Bastidas National University of Apurímac (Peru), whose objective was to determine the level of leadership of the municipal administration for the period 2018-2020, from the perspective of the citizens and servants of the municipality of Abancay (Peru). The findings of this study were based on a basic descriptive level research, within a non-experimental cross-sectional design, considering that objective results were sought, the approach was quantitative, for this purpose an appropriate questionnaire was developed for the public servant and another for the citizen that contains items for the dimensions of citizen security, public cleaning, execution of public works, and taxation system. These instruments were administered to a sample of 172 public servants between appointed and contracted, and 245 citizens, it being important to point out that the determination of the sample size was stratified probabilistic. For the contrasting of the hypothesis for being a comparative study with ordinal data, it was through the Mann Whitney U test whose inferential results allowed us to conclude that from the perspective of the citizen in 88% with respect to the leadership of the municipal management who point out that the leadership is not adequate, while public servants indicate that it is almost always or always adequate (53.9% and 23.26% respectively). The inferential analysis allows us to affirm that there is a significant difference between the perceptions of both groups.

Abstract

This book illustrates how social media platforms enable us to understand everyday politics and evaluates the extent to which they can foster accountability, transparency and responsiveness. The first part focuses on accountability and tests whether the offline behavior of politicians is consistent with their online declarations, showing that textual analysis of politicians’ messages is useful to explain phenomena such as endorsements, party splits and appointments to cabinet. The second part concerns responsiveness. By means of sentiment analysis, it investigates the shape of the interaction between citizens and politicians determining whether politicians’ behavior is influenced by the pressure exerted on social media both on policy and non-policy issues. Finally, the book evaluates whether a responsive behavior is successful in restoring online political trust, narrowing the gap between voters and political elites. The book will be of use to students, scholars and practitioners interested in party organization, intra-party politics, legislative politics, social media analysis and political communication, as well as politicians themselves.

Abstract

This book asks an important question often ignored by ancient historians and political scientists alike: Why did Athenian democracy work as well and for as long as it did? Josiah Ober seeks the answer by analyzing the sociology of Athenian politics and the nature of communication between elite and nonelite citizens. After a preliminary survey of the development of the Athenian "constitution," he focuses on the role of political and legal rhetoric. As jurymen and Assemblymen, the citizen masses of Athens retained important powers, and elite Athenian politicians and litigants needed to address these large bodies of ordinary citizens in terms understandable and acceptable to the audience. This book probes the social strategies behind the rhetorical tactics employed by elite speakers. A close reading of the speeches exposes both egalitarian and elitist elements in Athenian popular ideology. Ober demonstrates that the vocabulary of public speech constituted a democratic discourse that allowed the Athenians to resolve contradictions between the ideal of political equality and the reality of social inequality. His radical reevaluation of leadership and political power in classical Athens restores key elements of the social and ideological context of the first western democracy.
