New Democracy
The activist state of the New Deal started forming decades before the FDR administration, demonstrating the deep roots of energetic government in America. In the period between the Civil War and the New Deal, American governance was transformed, with momentous implications for social and economic life. A series of legal reforms gradually brought an end to nineteenth-century traditions of local self-government and associative citizenship, replacing them with positive statecraft: governmental activism intended to change how Americans lived and worked through legislation, regulation, and public administration. The last time American public life had been so thoroughly altered was in the late eig...
Party Politics in a New Democracy
This book offers a timely, and fresh historical perspective on the politics of independent Ireland. Interwar Ireland’s politics have been caricatured as an anomaly, with the distinction between Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael bewildering political commentators and scholars alike. It is common for Ireland’s politics to be presented as an anomaly that compare unfavourably to the neat left/right cleavages evident in Britain and much of Europe. By offering an historical re-appraisal of the Irish Free State’s politics, anchored in the wider context of inter-war Europe, Mel Farrell argues that the Irish party system is not unique in having two dominant parties capable of adapting to changing circumstances, and suggests that this has been a key strength of Irish democracy. Moreover, the book challenges the tired cliché of ‘Civil War Politics’ by demonstrating that events subsequent to Civil War led the Fine Gael/Fianna Fáil cleavage dominant in the twentieth-century.

New Democracy
The purpose of writing the book is to eliminate the defects exists in the present democratic system. The present democratic system based on the party system. It has a lot of disadvantages. Parties are polluting minds of people and getting votes. Here money power plays a major role. Here Booth capturing, EVMs tampering taking place. Here ruling parties can do anything to get the victory by its money power and ruling power. Election commission can favor some party. In the party system party leader, one man plays a major role and all others are not having enough power. For want of power elected members are switching over to other parties. For want of power, parties are changing their alliance often. Here parties are selecting candidates based on caste and religion. Party system there is no minimum educational qualification and political knowledge of the candidates is not considered, only their money power, caste and religion are considered. Moreover, the present democratic system pays ways for the emergence of new parties. So I recommend the party less democracy system for the benefit of the country and the world.

The Decline and Rise of Democracy
"Historical accounts of democracy's rise tend to focus on ancient Greece and pre-Renaissance Europe. The Decline and Rise of Democracy draws from global evidence to show that the story is much richer--democratic practices were present in many places, at many other times, from the Americas before European conquest, to ancient Mesopotamia, to precolonial Africa. Delving into the prevalence of early democracy throughout the world, David Stasavage makes the case that understanding how and where these democracies flourished--and when and why they declined--can provide crucial information not just about the history of governance, but also about the ways modern democracies work and where they could manifest in the future."--
