- The Politics of Constitution-making
443,95 kr. Spain's Transition to Democracy: The Politics of Constitution-making was a groundbreaking and prophetic contribution to the field of comparative political change when it was first published in 1987. In this third edition of her work, Dr. Bonime-Blanc provides a new introductory overview and snapshot analysis of how and why democracy has almost inevitably taken over the world over the past three decades. This widely referenced book remains relevant to this day to an understanding of how nations can have peaceful and successful transitions to democracy. The book was the first to analyze both the politics (negotiations) and contents (key substantive areas) of constitution-making in the context of a peaceful transition to democracy which at the time was both a rare and unusual form of political change. In addition to understanding the dynamics of the successful and paradigmatic post-Franco Spanish transition to democracy, the book places the Spanish case in both a contemporary (Portugal, Greece) and a historical (post World War II Germany, Italy and Japan) context. The book concludes with a clear and practical typology of constitution-making processes and transitions to democracy providing guidance on how certain types of constitution-making may yield more or less successful forms of democratization. The book was first written when successful transitions to democracy were rare, untested and unusual. Since then, the world has seen a vast transformation from mostly authoritarian regimes to most nations now claiming that, in one way or another, they are democracies. The role of constitution-making in transitions to democracy continues to this day to be an essential guide to and predictor of the success of the resulting democratic regime as much research on this topic since the first publication of this book has confirmed.

- Surviving and Thriving in the Age of Hyper-Transparency
533,95 kr. This book will show you how to build a sustainable reputation risk management framework and how to handle your next reputation risk crisis. It will help you identify ways in which reputation risk can impact bottom line, and then show you how to set up a framework for turning that risk into an opportunity for good, sustainable business. Reputation risk is a strategic risk and a potentially material risk, all the more so in the 'age of hyper-transparency'. This needs to be clearly understood by both management and boards of directors so that the people tasked with reputation risk have the support they need to align their reputation risk management with business strategy and planning. The Reputation Risk Handbook provides a clear framework to identify, manage and resolve reputation risk, including: A clear description of what reputation risk is and how it fits within the pantheon of corporate and institutional risk and strategic management A practical process for creating early warning systems and on-going management and monitoring of reputation risks Techniques for aligning reputation risk management with business strategy and business planning Several case studies, including examples of when reputation risk management has gone wrong Examples of how to manage specific reputation risks successfully or deal with a reputation risk crisis. The Reputation Risk Handbook is not just for practitioners - those who manage risk and reputation directly - but for those who have oversight of risk management - namely boards, their committees and the c-suite. In addition to a framework for practitioners, the book provides specific suggestions for boards, including questions to ask management and what to look for within their organizations.
