Political Entrepreneurship

In light of the populist challenge and the decline of traditional political parties, the book also offers an entertaining backstage view a...
Burgenland
1945 wurde das Burgenland - bis 1921 Teil Ungarns - ein zweites Mal Bundesland der Republik Osterreich. Nach der Besatzungsdekade und der Phase als Grenzland am Eisernen Vorhang kommen nach dem Ende des Kommunismus durch die sogenannte "Ostoffnung" neue Herausforderungen und Chancen auf das Land an der EU-Aussengrenze zu. Die Entwicklung der Strukturen des politischen Systems, die Bedeutung der Volksgruppen, der Kirchen, des Bildungswesens, der Medien, der Kultur und Wirtschaftspolitik sowie der Wohnbauforderung im Land der Pendlerdorfer sind zentrale Themen dieser Gesamtdarstellung der Landesgeschichte nach 1945.

Heads of State and Government
Macmillan published the first edition of this text in 1985. It is a detailed reference to world leaders, monarchs, presidents and their equivalents, executive leaders plus other positions with authority vested in them; heads of ruling communist parties, military junta heads and some leaders with no formal post, but who wield supreme authority. This text is a reference to leaders, past and present, of the countries of the world. The second edition updates the first and includes the far reaching political changes which have taken place in Eastern Europe and the emergence of new states. The scope of the book has been broadened to include more international organisations, more regional government leaders, more governments in exile and colonial governors of the twentieth century.

Innovative Citizen Participation and New Democratic Institutions Catching the Deliberative Wave
Public authorities from all levels of government increasingly turn to Citizens' Assemblies, Juries, Panels and other representative deliberative processes to tackle complex policy problems ranging from climate change to infrastructure investment decisions. They convene groups of people representing a wide cross-section of society for at least one full day – and often much longer – to learn, deliberate, and develop collective recommendations that consider the complexities and compromises required for solving multifaceted public issues.
Der Weg zum Land der Sonne
Der Autor schildert die Geschichte des im Vergleich zu anderen Bundesländern relativ jungen Burgenlandes von den Anfängen ab 1921 bis in die Gegenwart. Er versteht es, die Höhen und Tiefen dieses geschichtlich so jungen Bundeslandes detailliert und faktenbasiert darzustellen. Der erste burgenländische Bundeskanzler – Dr. Fred Sinowatz –, Aufstieg und Niedergang politischer Parteien, Skandale, man denke nur an WBO oder die Vorfälle um die Bank Mattersburg, aber auch Kriminalfälle wie der Bombenterror der sogenannten Bajuwarischen Befreiungsarmee um Franz Fuchs sind auch heute noch im Gedächtnis der Republik Österreich erhalten. Die jüngsten Entwicklungen mit dem Einfluss von Landeshauptmann Doskozil auf die SPÖ-Bundespartei runden dieses spannende Buch ab.
