The Impact

Political culture, as a part of public culture and a group of beliefs, virtues, norms and approaches with views to the political area, is one of the basic issues which has been paid attention and the subject of many researches, especially since the second half of the 20th century. The topic of this article is studying Afghanistan political culture as well as answering the question of which impacts it has had on Afghanistan political participation during the after-2001 years. Also, in this research, by using an analytic-descriptive method, at first, the definition of political culture and its features in Afghanistan are presented and then, the occurred changes in the indexes of Afghanistan political coopetation in the recent decades are studied too. Political culture, as the system of empirical beliefs, symbols, virtues and the norms, which are regarded as the foundation of political action and the political behaviours of the public people, parties and the government officials is one of the basic issues which has been considered and studied by many experts of politucal area for the recent era. The continuity and strength of any any kinds of cooperations depends on the society political culture origin as it is a very important factor for defining the political social identity of the public members and determining their views, virtues and norms toward politics and authority. Moreover, in this study, at first,the level of changes in the last-two-decade political culture of Afghanistan society is discussed and then its impact on political participation is analysed through explaining the tie between beliefs and behaviours as well as a case study over the political cooperarion increase.

The Media

Much has been written about the “new technology” of U.S. elections: computerized letters, data banks of potential contributors, advanced video advertising techniques, speedy transportation and communication, and instant analysis of polling data. If one examines these discussions for a sense of how the growing use of these new technologies has changed the politics of elections, one finds several themes. Many scholars and journalists have described, for example, the high dollar costs of technology-dependent campaigns, the consequent influence of political action committees, how presidential candidates in particular are “marketed,” via the media, like toothpaste or breakfast cereal, and the prevalence in campaigns of superficial image rather than issues. We argue here that these changes in the way elections are conducted are associated with a deeper change in the conception of elections. The core of this argument is that changes in election technology have made possible the conduct of campaigns in which “strategy” has taken on a new meaning, and that leaders and the public share a view of elections that has progressively less to do with education, public discourse, or participation.

Women's Political Participation

Women's political participation in the political stage has increased, one of which is due to the creation of the 2003 Election Law which regulates the quota of women legislative candidates at least 30 percent. The emergence of regulations that open wide avenues for women to take part in politics, in fact, is inversely proportional to the conditions of women cadres in Bali. In Bali, women who succeed in sitting in the district / city legislature can be counted by fingers. From the 2004 to 2014 elections, no more than 10 percent of Balinese women succeeded in gaining positions in the regional legislature. The number of Balinese women who participated was relatively large, but after voting (elections), only a few managed to win. So that this raises the phenomenon of Balinese female cadres being only used as a tool to fulfill the quota of political parties without being given the knowledge, motivation and fighting spirit to take careers seriously in the world of practical politics.

This chapter addresses the nature of the featured groups’ activities, the targets of their actions, the context out of which these actions arise, and the effects of these efforts. This qualitative approach is appropriate when theoretical frameworks aren't doing an adequate job of explaining, predicting and understanding a phenomenon - youth political participation in this case. Although shaped by their missions, structures, and resources, this research suggests that the groups engage in a variety of actions meant to raise awareness, serve the public, and influence the political process. Although they make use of the technological tools of their generation, their actions are in line with traditional conceptions of political action with attention to their outcomes and impact.

Os eventos políticos que tiveram lugar em Caracas desde meados do século XX acarretaram a aparição de formas inovadoras de utilização do espaço público e o desenvolvimento de territorialidades urbanas diferenciadas. A incorporação de grandes multidões à urbe, a luta pelos direitos de cidadania, o surgimento dos partidos políticos e outras formas de organização da sociedade e a transformação dos espaços públicos aos fins do debate político são alguns dos fenômenos que têm caracterizado a modernidade caraquenha. Com a crise do sistema democrático, a politização da vida cotidiana e a reformulação dos esquemas de participação política têm acentuado os processos de segregação espacial e provocado o surgimento de novos mapas de percepção da metrópole. O objetivo principal deste trabalho é examinar desde uma perspectiva histórica a evolução no uso e representação do espaço público utilizado para os fins da participação política, suas implicações para o planejamento urbano e a introdução em tempos recentes de novas cartografias urbanas por efeito de processos de mudança política, programas de descentralização governamental e debates patrimoniais.Palavras-chave: planejamento; política; espaço urbano; Caracas. Abstract: The political events that took place in Caracas from the middle of the 20th century have supposed the apparition of novel forms of utilization of the public space and the development of differentiated urban territorialities.

With the rise and crisis of the democratic system, the politicization of the everyday life as well as the re-formulation of the schemes of political participation have supposed an accentuation of the processes of spatial segregation and the development of new maps of urban perception. The main objective of this work is to examine, from a historic perspective, the evolution in the use and representation of the public space. It examines how space has been used for political participation, its effects on city and regional planning, and the introduction of new urban cartographies in the midst of political change, programs of governmental decentralization, and heritage debates.Keywords: planning; politics; urban space; Caracas.

Party Polarization

Citizens are political simpletons—that is only a modest exaggeration of a common characterization of voters. Certainly, there is no shortage of evidence of citizens' limited political knowledge, even about matters of the highest importance, along with inconsistencies in their thinking, some glaring by any standard. But this picture of citizens all too often approaches caricature. This book brings together leading political scientists who offer new insights into the political thinking of the public, the causes of party polarization, the motivations for political participation, and the paradoxical relationship between turnout and democratic representation. These studies propel a foundational argument about democracy. Voters can only do as well as the alternatives on offer. These alternatives are constrained by third players, in particular activists, interest groups, and financial contributors. The result: voters often appear to be shortsighted, extreme, and inconsistent because the alternatives they must choose between are shortsighted, extreme, and inconsistent.

In The Beginning

The article is devoted to the general patterns of political parties formation in Russia at the beginning of the 20th century. They were preceded by proto-party organizations that were far from being ideologically monolithic. Under the conditions of rapid differentiation of political forces, the existing alliances were often accidental and situational. They hung on to the legacy of the pre-revolutionary era, when the public was just “learning” to talk about politics, and the boundaries between different ideological structures were quite rather relative.
