Description

Politics of Coalition in Korea : Between Institutions and Culture, Hardcover by Kim, Youngmi, ISBN 0415562155, ISBN-13 9780415562157, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US In this study of the effects of coalition-building in South Korean national politics, Kim (public policy, Central European U., Hungary) focuses on the Kim Dae-jung administration (1) as an example of failure to turn electoral success into stable governability and seeks to answer questions concerning whether government instability derives from divided government or coalition building, why legislators were more actively engaged in the fission and fusion of parties after democratization, what factors mitigate towards compromise and negotiation versus fission and fusion, and why ruling parties sought defectors from other parties when there was no danger of losing power until the end of fixed terms, among other questions. In order to answer theses questions she draws on the literature on coalitions in parliamentary systems and its focus on the formation, size, and termination of government and research on presidential systems and its explorations of political deadlock as a result of minority or divided government.

  1. On the hunt for this particular cover art, the seller was very helpful with guidance on how to confirm through an ISBN search with the publisher. That solidified my choice to purchase from this seller. The book was packaged well for shipping and protection during travels. I'm extremely pleased with the pricing coupled with the mint condition of the book and the fast shipping (considering the hinderances caused by the current winter conditions). Great transaction and I will shop with them again!

  2. As pictured / as described. Shipping - I ordered Dec 12 and glanced to see something like "Arrives ... 17th-21st", quickly thinking, "OK - plenty of time for Christmas". When it didn't show up, I went back to find it was actually "January 14th-17th" - oops! my goof! Wasn't expecting 5 week shipping. But ultimately, it did come in on Dec 26th, so quicker than the stated and might have been even quicker if not for holidays. Otherwise, good packing. Quick, easy transaction. Thanks!
