The Irish Political Studies Data Yearbook is an annual register of
core political data covering the Republic of Ireland and Northern
Ireland. It constitutes an important time series of data on Irish
politics. This includes members of governments, state of the
parties in parliament, parliamentary committees, register of
legislative acts with summaries of their content, all election
results, extensive opinion poll data, party membership and a
detailed chronology of the main political events of the year.
Critics of referendums often lament that big money may buy success
at the ballot box. But spending by interest groups may also be
informative for citizens. This can only happen, however, if the
financing of referendum campaigns is regulated. This book offers an
overview of these regulations and presents research on their
effects.
The second edition of this widely used text provides a
comprehensive introduction to the main research methods employed in
the study of politics and assessment of their strengths and
limitations; of their interrelationship; and of ethical issues in
research. Illustrated throughout with boxed examples of real
political research, the book ranges widely from substantial
coverage of statistical methods to the use of archives, interviews,
discourse analysis and the internet. Two additional chapters in the
second edition focus on the relationship between research and
policy and the lessons for researchers from the study of elections
in the US and UK.
