1 POS 6933 Presidents, Prime Ministers, and Legislatures Department of Political Science University of Florida Spring Semester 2005 Richard S. Conley, PhD Associate Professor (352) x 297 rconley@polisci.ufl.edu This course will examine theoretical and empirical research on executives and legislatures, and their interrelations, quite broadly and from a comparative viewpoint. We will juxtapose the American separated system with semi-presidential systems such as France in the Fifth Republic and post-communist Russia, as well as with Westminster-style parliamentary systems such as the UK and Canada. We will compare cases of divided government, broadly conceptualized, to include coalition and minority governments in parliamentary democracies. We will explore cabinet formation, executive advisory structures, prime ministerial functions and politics (e.g., policy leadership, media relations, etc.), the presidentialisation thesis about the British premiership, and government termination and parliamentary control. Students are expected to attend all class meetings and actively participate in weekly discussions. Attendance and participation will comprise 25% of the course grade. The other 75% of the course grade will constitute a research paper of approximately pages in length (journal length). The paper should represent an endeavour, which, fully developed through additional research an analysis, could be worthy of a conference presentation or a journal submission. Students are expected to theorize about a particular aspect of executivelegislative relations (single case or cross-comparisons are acceptable) and set forth a substantive question or problem, a hypothesis or set of hypotheses, and a methodological approach suitable to the question of inquiry. Students are encouraged to collect relevant data and undertake empirical analysis, as appropriate to the focus of their research, using the various frameworks in the course readings and discussions as a springboard. A preliminary outline of the paper (5-8 pp.) will be due mid-semester. Date TBA.
