  • More Participation, More Democracy?

    Geraint Parry, George MoyserCHAPTERDemocracy2016

  • Democracy and democratization

    Geraint Parry, Michael MoranBOOKDemocracy and Democratization2015

    America's global role has meant that the diffusion of democracy has been influenced by something more than the ideological hegemony of the democratic model. American power in the 'production structure' has exerted a powerful influence in favour of liberal, free-market economics, the kind of economic arrangement most commonly associated with democratic politics. The development of the European Community (EC) is, in important respects, a functional…

  • Education

    Open AccessGeraint ParryCHAPTERThe Cambridge History of…2006

    Education was a topic that held a central place in the concerns of eighteenth-century philosophy. The connection between philosophy and education goes back, of course, to Plato. However, for the eighteenth century, education had a particularly significant role to play. The term 'Enlightenment' applied to much of the period hints clearly at this – implying a process of 'enlightening', of education or re-education. Kant's celebrated definition of e…

  • Constructive and Reconstructive Political Education

    Geraint ParryARTICLEOxford Review of Education1999

    It is a recurrent feature of the history of political thought that thinkers have turned their attention to education. Some have been concerned with the reproduction of a political culture through education. Others have sought to redress the failings of present generations by re-educating future citizens. A broad distinction is drawn between 'constructive' political education which takes human nature as given and aims to redirect pupils to new pri…

    Geraint Parry, Hillel Steiner et al.BOOKFree Trade and Its Reception…1998

  • The Sovereign as Educator

    Geraint ParryARTICLEPaedagogica Historica1998

    Thomas Hobbes (1588‐1679), the greatest English political philosopher, famously argued that the solution to civil disorders lay in a sovereign authority backed with force. But force was insufficient unless people were also educated to obedience. The key was the re‐education of teachers, including ministers of religion and lawyers, who would then instruct the masses. Hobbes attributed disorder, particularly in the English Civil War, to the doctrin…

  • Opposition Questions

    Open AccessGeraint ParryARTICLEGovernment and Opposition1997Citada por: 8

    ONE OF THE PECULIARITIES OF THE SUBJECT OF OPPOSITION IS THAT, although the problem of opposition is one of the oldest, very few works have ever dealt with it specifically and exclusively.’ These introductory remarks to their 1968 volume by Ghiţa Ionescu and Isabel de Madariaga still hold remarkably true, despite a number of subsequent works and collections devoted to the subject. Their explanation was that although opposition is the altera pars …

  • Finer’s Sixth Constitution

    Open AccessGeraint ParryARTICLEGovernment and Opposition1994Referências: 1

    It is a Recurrent Theme of Comments on Sammy Finer's writing that, like his talk, it dazzled. Perhaps, as he himself said of his Compurutiue Government text compared to his own lectures, the written version might be ‘less picturesque and Mediterranean’ but it could still enliven the most apparently dull topics within political science. Thus it may seem curious to draw attention to a work of his which betrays fewer of these qualities. The work is …

  • The Interweaving of Foreign and Domestic Policy‐Making

    Open AccessGeraint ParryARTICLEGovernment and Opposition1993Citada por: 3Referências: 4

    These Words Spoken By President Clinton At His Inauguration on 20 January 1993 can usefully serve as a leitmotif for the present issue of the journal Government and Opposition. The issue is itself the outcome of a conference organized by the journal and the Department of Government of the University of Manchester. The theme was the ‘Influences of Domestic and International Factors on Processes of Policy-Making’. However, this title does not quite…

  • Political Participation and Democracy in Britain

    Open AccessGeraint Parry, George Moyser et al.BOOKPolitical Participation and…1992

    Why do some people involve themselves in politics and others not? Which issues are they concerned with? What do they get out of it? Answering such questions is fundamental to understanding political life and the workings of liberal democracies. This book presents the results of one of the most extensive surveys ever undertaken on the levels and patterns of political involvement in Britain. It is based on the findings of a sample survey of nearly …

  • Voices and Signals — Active Citizens and the Market-Place

    Geraint Parry, George MoyserCHAPTERMarket and the State1991

    In democratic Athens it was the practice to use a vermilion-smeared rope to drive citizens from the market-place (the agora) to the assembly on the pnyx.1 Thus it would seem that Athenians fell somewhat short of Rousseau’s ideal that men would ‘fly to the assembly’ and that, even in this most politicised of communities, they were inclined to stay around in the market, trading for their own advantage. This reluctance to use one’s political voice m…

  • Local Politics and Participation in Britain and France

    Open AccessAlbert Mabileau, George Moyser et al.BOOKLocal Politics and Participation…1990

    Local participation can and does influence the political process. Local Politics and Participation in Britain and France, first published in 1990, provides a unique comparative study of the involvement of average citizens in local politics and government between national elections. The work of Professor Mabileau and his colleagues will illuminate the nature of contemporary processes of participation at a time when the local level of government, a…

  • A Map of Political Participation in Britain

    Open AccessGeraint Parry, George MoyserARTICLEGovernment and Opposition1990Citada por: 4Referências: 7

    WHEREVER ONE TAKES A POSITION IN THE GREAT DEBATE between representative and participatory democrats it is clear that no democracy can function without the involvement of its citizens. What is at issue is the extent and nature of the citizen participation which is thought to be required if a democracy is to be worthy of its name. Whilst this is a fundamentally normative issue, the protagonists on both sides regularly cite evidence as to actual le…

  • Democracy and Amateurism—the Informed Citizen

    Open AccessGeraint ParryARTICLEGovernment and Opposition1989Referências: 6

    ALTHOUGH THE PROBLEM OF POLITICAL KNOWLEDGE WAS AT the centre of classical political thought it has been only intermittently addressed in more recent theoretical writings. To the degree that modern political writing has concerned itself with the question of the kind of knowledge appropriate and possible in politics, it has focused on the capacity of core decision-makers to absorb and assess the information presented to them by experts

    CRISIS? WHAT CRISIS?’, THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER was reported to have replied to a question concerning the alleged crisis in sterling. In the case of the welfare state it might seem that the appropriate response would be ‘Which crisis? ’ since there are several on the menu - fiscal crisis, legitimacy crisis, crisis of ungovernability . Left, Right and Centre have become convinced that there is a crisis. This is after a period of history whi…

  • Political Participation in Britain

    Open AccessGeraint Parry, George MoyserARTICLEGovernment and Opposition1984Citada por: 4Referências: 19

    HISTORICALLY SPEAKING, THE THEME OF POLITICAL PARTICIpation and the set of issues connected with it are as old as politics itself, because they touch on some of the most central and perennial questions of political life – who decides, where are the boundaries of community and citizenship to be drawn, who benefits, how will decisions be made? However, beyond this, participation has from time to time become a particularly central and salient issue …

  • Locke on representation in politics

    Geraint ParryARTICLEHistory of European Ideas1982

    ‘the Image, Phantom, or Representative of the Commonwealth . . .’ (1;: ;51).’ This is how Locke in the Two Treatises describes a supreme executive who, as in the English system of government, has a share also in the legislative power. It is very unusual for Locke in his political writings to employ vocabulary which might be drawn from his epistemological writings and it is intriguing that he should do so when describing the qualities of political…
