Taking the international spotlight: Pauline Hanson and Pauline Hanson's One Nation Party

Pauline Hanson's One Nation Party (PHONP) held an extraordinary place in the Australian and international media from March 1996, when Hanson was elected to the House of Representatives. Hanson's role as a charismatic leader idolised by supporters is unprecedented in postwar Australian politics and the leader and the party were totally identified, with Hanson's name incorporated into that of the organisation when PHONP won 11 of the 89 seats in the Queensland Legislative Assembly in June 1998.

A ATUAÇÃO DOS EVANGÉLICOS NA ASSEMBLÉIA LEGISLATIVA DE SÃO PAULO DE 1945 A 2010

O protestantismo brasileiro, desde a sua inserção em meados do século XIX, alcançou atualmente, de maneira inquestionável e inegável, grande visibilidade religiosa e política. Esta pesquisa ocupa-se desse universo, especificamente da atuação política dos evangélicos por meio de deputados estaduais na Assembléia Legislativa de São Paulo de 1945 a 2010. Foram descritos os projetos de lei de uma amostra significativa de parlamentares evangélicos paulistas com o objetivo de analisar a sua pertinência ou alcance social, ou seja, correlacioná-los com o contexto socioeconômico e cultural da população paulista em geral e, particularmente, com a população carente. Para tanto, nos servimos do Centro de Informação e Documentação do Palácio 9 de Julho que resguarda a biblioteca legislativa de São Paulo com documentos, livros, publicações, atas. A questão formulada se expressa nos seguintes termos: Em que medida os projetos de lei dos parlamentares evangélicos têm caráter assistencialista e clientelista. A fundamentação teórica utilizada vale-se dos conceitos de representação ou delegação política, habitus, campo, capital, poder simbólico de Pierre Bourdieu, aplicando-os na compreensão do campo político paulista e, especificamente, na práxis dos deputados evangélicos paulistas. A cidadania brasileira está historicamente em construção e as causas dessa inconclusão residem no período colonial brasileiro e seus desdobramentos dos períodos históricos subseqüentes. As implicações dessa análise desembocaram na constatação da instituição do clientelismo, assistencialismo, patrimonialismo como derivados de uma política paternalista do Estado brasileiro, das elites dominantes e particularmente do estado de São Paulo que perduram nos dias hodiernos.

The winds of change? Exploring political effects of Hurricane Andrew

Before dawn on August 24, 1992, Hurricane Andrew smashed into south Florida, particularly southern Dade County, and soon become the costliest natural disaster in U.S. history. Andrew's impacts quickly overwhelmed local and state emergency response capabilities and eventually required major federal assistance, including regular military units. While the social and economic impacts of Hurricane Andrew are relatively well researched, much less attention has been given to its possible political effects. ^ Focusing on incumbent officeholders at three levels (municipal, state legislative, and statewide) who stood for reelection after Hurricane Andrew, this study seeks to determine whether they experienced any political effects from Andrew. That is, this study explores the possible interaction between the famous “incumbency advantage” and an “extreme event,” in this case a natural disaster. The specific foci were (1) campaigns and campaigning (a research process that included 43 personal interviews), and (2) election results before and after the event. ^ Given well-documented response problems, the working hypothesis was that incumbents experienced largely negative political fallout from the disaster. The null hypothesis was that incumbents saw no net political effects, but the reverse hypothesis was also considered: incumbents benefited politically from the event. ^ In the end, this study found that although the election process was physically disrupted, especially in south Dade County, the disaster largely reinforced the incumbency advantage. More specifically, the aftermath of Hurricane Andrew allowed most incumbent officeholders to (1) enhance constituency service, (2) associate themselves with the flow of external assistance, (3) achieve major personal visibility and media coverage, and yet (4) appear non-political or at least above normal politics. Overall, this combination allowed incumbents to very effectively “campaign without campaigning,” a point borne out by post-Andrew election results. ^
