Follows the general theme of the politics of development from 3 angles: the nature of the development strategy, the nature of state organization in relation to that strategy, and, somewhat tentatively, the results of those strategies. Concentrates on questions of planning agriculture and industry since these are the most publicly visible aspects of the developmental process. (SJO)

This book employs a Marxist framework to analyse aspects of Ghanaian politics during the 1966-81 period. Its central claim is that the present Ghanaian social formation which is dominated by foreign capital through the domestic bourgeois and petit-bourgeois classes is incapable of transforming itself into an independent autonomous system. Hence, it is characterised by recurring political and economic crises. Industrial strikes and other forms of struggle by the lower classes are responses to the deprivations which they suffer as a result of these crises, and constitute attempts to reject the rule of the country's ruling classes.

The article conceptualizes the quality of political information and shows how the concept can be used for empirical research. I distinguish three aspects of quality ( intelligibility, relevance, and validity) and use them to judge the constituent foundations of political information, that is, component claims (statements of alleged facts) and connection claims (argumentative statements created by causally linking two component claims). The resulting conceptual map thus entails six manifestations of information quality ( component claim intelligibility, connection claim intelligibility, component claim relevance, connection claim relevance, component claim validity, and connection claim validity). I explain how the conceptual map can be used to make sense of the eclectic variety of existing research, and how it can advance new empirical research, as a guide for determining variation in information quality, as a conceptual template for the analysis of different types of political messages and their common quality deficiencies, and as a generator of new research questions and theoretical expectations.

New solutions, technical and non-technical, provide strong opportunities to improve crisis management, while successful operationalisation of new solutions essentially depends on framework conditions such as organisational, legal, and political aspects in the respective area. Within the FP7-project DRIVER, these framework conditions are addressed in a dedicated part. Next to the objective of receiving most realistic scenarios for the testing of new Crisis Management solutions, the analysis of framework conditions aims at developing evidence-based recommendations for different types of stakeholders. Intensive surveys of the European Member States, selected third countries, the United Nations and the European Union have been completed. In a next step, more pertinent organisational, legal, and political framework conditions regarding the applicability of DRIVER solutions will be focused.
