El artículo examina diferentes puntos de vista sobre el papel del monarca y el parlamento en la sociedad de finales del siglo XVIII, y se ocupa de los principales problemas políticos de los diferentes gobiernos de Carlos III. Partiendo de los planteamientos de algunos destacados pensadores contemporáneos como Adam Smith, Campomanes, Rousseau o Montesquieu, Alexander Jardine nos ofrece una perspectiva liberal de los problemas y nos aporta algunas posibles soluciones. Éstas se basan principalmente en una mayor representatividad democrática, el fomento de la libre competencia, la abolición de la Inquisición y la concesión de una mayor autonomía política y administrativa. ; This paper analyses different perspectives about the role of the monarch and parliament in the late Eighteenth Century.

This paper has two aims. First, in contrast to the modernist empiricism of mainstream political science, we provide brief introductions to several interpretive approaches to the study of political science and British government and politics: idealism, social humanism, post-structuralism, and ideational institutionalism. Second, we identify the distinctive research agendas that arise from this family of approaches: namely, critique, decentring governance, ethnographic studies of British politics, and policy analysis as storytelling.

WOS:000258402600003 (Nº de Acesso Web of Science) ; Since the Portuguese revolution of April 25th, 1974, and the beginning of the democratic regime (with the first elections for parliament held on April 25th, 1975), political parties dominate the electoral process, both on central government and on the municipalities. The analysis of the political elites, their party filiations and recruitment and their social backgrounds has occupied Portuguese social scientists for the last years. With this paper, the author proposes to establish the relationship between these two levels of government, national and local, and access the importance of political parties in each of them. Many mayors' political careers include vertical mobility, both upwards and downwards: from mayors to members of parliament to members of the European Parliament and ministers or even Prime-Minister and President of the Republic (in the case of two mayors of Lisbon), or from ministers and members of parliament to mayors. In all of these cases, their party and their position within the party has played a central role, even when some individuals have pursued other party choices in order to get re-elected, or even have presented independent candidacies (only possible since 1997).
In 2004 and 2005, Afghanistan adopted a permanent constitution and elected a president and a parliament. The parliament is emerging as a significant force in Afghan politics, as shown in debate over a new cabinet proposed in March 2006. However, insurgent violence continues to threaten Afghan stability.
