Existing evidence for a causal effect of veto control has been weak. This article presents evidence for this effect on the basis of conditional and mixed logit analyses of government formations in 21 parliamentary and semi-presidential democracies between 1955 and 2012. It also shows that the size of the effect varies systematically across political-institutional contexts. The estimated causal effect was greater in countries that eventually abolished the relevant veto institutions. It is suggested that the incidence of constitutional reform is a proxy for context-specific factors that increased the incentives for veto control and simultaneously provided a stimulus for the weakening of institutional veto power.}, language = {en} } @article{Esders2005, author = {Esders, Karin}, title = {Der Blick}, isbn = {3-476-01913-6}, year = {2005}, language = {de} } @article{Esders2005, author = {Esders, Karin}, title = {Cyberspace}, isbn = {3-476-01913-6}, year = {2005}, language = {de} } @article{Esders2004, author = {Esders, Karin}, title = {Lost and found : Autorinnen der Moderne auf der Suche nach einer k{\"u}nstlichen Stimme}, year = {2004}, language = {de} } @article{Esders2003, author = {Esders, Karin}, title = {You make me feel like a natural woman ... : von der (Un-)Wirklichkeit digitaler K{\"o}rperbilder}, isbn = {3-8100-3924-1}, year = {2003}, language = {de} } @article{Esders2002, author = {Esders, Karin}, title = {Grenzaufl{\"o}sungen : K{\"o}rper, Wissen, Medien}, year = {2002}, language = {de} } @article{Esders2002, author = {Esders, Karin}, title = {K{\"u}che und Kino : von Lust und Frust des kulinarischen Films}, year = {2002}, language = {de} } @article{FaberStrohe2001, author = {Faber, Cathleen and Strohe, Hans Gerhard}, title = {Statistische Analyse von Einkommen und Armut in Russland : Pr{\"u}fstein f{\"u}r Reformen der Wirtschafts- und Sozialpolitik}, year = {2001}, language = {de} } @article{Fitzi2017, author = {Fitzi, Gregor}, title = {Dialogue.

After an initial impression of convergence between the sociology of social facts and the sociology of social forms, a break between the two founders of sociology became inevitable. Yet, Durkheim and Simmel went on positioning themselves against one other in the years ahead. Durkheim's allegation of 'individual psychologism' induced Simmel to a veiled reception of Durkheim's methodological approach that permitted him to refine the sociological epistemology he eventually presented in the Soziologie published in 1908. On this basis, he was able to formulate a final criticism of the sociology of social facts as a social psychology.}, language = {en} } @article{Fitzi2019, author = {Fitzi, Gregor}, title = {Max Weber's concept of 'modern politics}, series = {Journal of Classical Sociology}, volume = {19}, journal = {Journal of Classical Sociology}, number = {4}, publisher = {Sage Publ.}, address = {London}, issn = {1468-795X}, doi = {10.1177/1468795X19851368}, pages = {361 -- 376}, year = {2019}, abstract = {In a critical approach to Mommsen's classical thesis, which states the dependence of Weber's sociology on his political position, the article reconstructs the foundation of Weber's 'The Profession and Vocation of Politics' on his sociological analyses of the political domain in the manuscripts for the posthumous publication of Economy and Society. The first two pages of his 1919 lecture particularly show that Weber can fall back on the definitions of State and politics that he had already developed for his political sociology. Yet, to appreciate the full extent of this theoretical contribution, it is necessary to present Weber's entire ideal-typical analysis of the political. The article then shows that Weber provides an unlabelled definition of 'modern politics' that negates ante litteram Carl Schmitt's foundation of politics on the idea of enmity. In this context, Weber's sound plea for parliamentarism and against the fascination of civil war comes to the fore that he wanted to deliver to his audience of young revolutionaries in January 1919.}, language = {en} }
