WiSe 16/17: (METH) Parliamentarism in Germany in Comparison
Elena Semenova
Kommentar
This seminar addresses major aspects of legislative politics in parliamentary democracies: (1) parliamentary constitutions and their consequences, (2) parliamentary institutions, (3) parliamentary behaviors, (3) parliamentary recruitment and elite formation, and (4) cabinet coalition bargaining. We will analyze these aspects using the German example and place our major findings in a comparative perspective (the US Congress, the French National Assembly, the UK Parliament, and East European parliaments). We will focus on aspects such as female and ethnic representation, parliamentary careers, committee assignments, and recruitment of cabinet ministers.
