Vad snackar de om? : – En tematisk textanalys av partiernas innehåll i sinaAlmedalental 2013 och 2017

Jacobsson, Joel January 2018 (has links)
Politikerveckan i Almedalen brukar ses som den viktigaste tiden i svensk politik varje år. Den här uppsatsens syfte är att ta reda på hur riksdagspartiernas tal har förändrats mellan två strategiskt valda nedslagsperioder – år 2013 och år 2017. Dessa år valdes eftersom de är åren innan de två senaste valen. Undersökningen begagnade sig av en tematisk textanalys och utgick ifrån Anthony Downs aktörsorienterade modell och Gunnar Sjöbloms teori om hur partier agerar i ett flerpartisystem. De viktigaste fynden i uppsatsen är att stöd hittades för att partierna i stor utsträckning pratar om snarlika frågor; att mindre partier är mer benägna att profilera sig; och att partierna trots att man försöker locka rörliga mittenväljare ändå i hög grad håller fast vid teman som kan kopplas till partiets ideologiska grund. Sverigedemokraterna och Vänsterpartiet sticker emellertid ut i sammanhanget då dessa två partier, trots att de inte ingår i någon officiell allians med andra partier, ändå valde att profilera sig särskilt mycket i vissa ämnen trots att det teoretiska ramverket förskriver att sådana partier bör fokusera på att locka en bred väljargrupp – inte smala sådana. Ansvar var det tema som tillskrevs störst betydelse överlag båda åren. Invandring och främlingsfientlighet var de teman som sett tillalla partier ökade mest i betydelse 2017 jämfört med 2013. Kristdemokraterna var det parti som allra tydligt gjorde en omsvängning mellan åren gällande hur man vinkade temainvandring och främlingsfientlighet. / <p>2018-06-07.</p>

Rational avoidance of accountability by Queensland governments

Lauchs, Mark Adam January 2006 (has links)
Anthony Downs public choice theory proposes that every rational person would try to meet their own desires in preference to those of others, and that such rational persons would attempt to obtain these desires in the most efficient manner possible. This thesis submits that the application of this theory would mean that public servants and politicians would perform acts of corruption and maladministration in order to efficiently meet their desires. As such action is unavoidable, political parties must appear to meet the public demand for accountability systems, but must not make these systems viable lest they expose the corruption and maladministration that would threaten the government’s chance or re-election. The thesis demonstrates this hypothesis through a study of the history of the public sector in Queensland. It shows that all governments have displayed a commitment for accountability whilst simultaneously ensuring the systems would not be able to interfere with government control or expose its flaws.

Downsova teorie racionální volby a její aplikovatelnost na vysvětlení volební účasti v České republice / Downs rational choice theory and its applicability to explain votrers turnout in the Czech Republic

Koreň, Pavel January 2012 (has links)
This thesis deals with the applicability of Anthony Downs rational choice theory to the Czech environment, respectively the utility of its model to explain voter turnout and identification of rationality among Czech voters. First part provides theoretical foundation of work, explanation of basic concepts from which the work draws and alternative theories to the research problem. It also presents current state of society in terms of policy perceptions, and participation in elections. The core of the work is to present Downs' rational choice theory, different views on it and its possible extension in terms of criticism. The basic variables introduced are here, in particular how are percieved by various authors, what is their content and what affects them. In the analytical part, the variables are examined within the reserach aims in terms of frequency in the population and individual segments of the electorate. The primary parameters of the rational choice theory model are then tested in terms of interdependence, and in terms of their significance in the model and their influence on voter turnout. The conclusion summarizes the research results, and demonstrates evaluation of the applicability of the model to the Czech voters, the relevance of individual variables representing the rational choice...
