Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Politics - Region: USA, grade: 1,3, University of Würzburg (Institut für Politikwissenschaft und Sozialforschung), course: American Government, language: English, abstract: In his article "Presidential Power and Congressional Acquiescence in the 'War' on Terrorism: A New Constitutional Equilibrium?" John E. Owens of the University of Westminster suggests the existence of a new constitutional equilibrium between the President and Congress in America. He builds his thesis on Burnham's punctuated equilibrium theory and analyzes Bush's policy and his war on terrorism. In this essay I will explain the main thesis of the punctuated equilibrium theory at first, to build on that basis the critical analysis whether the system of Checks and Balances in the United States is or has been out of work and whether we can truly speak of a change of system. This will be checked by analysing the constitution, the role of the Congress and the presidency of George W. Bush. In a second part of this essay I will take up the punctuated equilibrium theory again and explain that the equilibrium of the American system has been punctuated but it was not pushed on a new level, but levelled off again on the old equilibrium and re-established the system of Checks and Balances.
Autorenporträt
Nach meinem Abitur an einem Gymnasium mit sozialwissenschaftlichem Profil, startete ich im September 2009 mit meinem Studium. An der Julius-Maximilians Universität Würzburg studierte ich Englisch, Politikwissenschaft, Soziologie und Geschichte für das Lehramt an Gymnasien. 2012/2013 arbeitete ich für ein Jahr an der King's School in Grantham (Lincolnshire) in England als Fremdsprachenassistentin. Zurück an der Uni leitete ich Tutorien in Politikwissenschaft (Das politische System der BRD) und Soziologie (Allgemeine Soziologie). Des Weiteren arbeitete ich als studentische Hilfskraft für Schulpädagogik. Nach meinem bestandenen Staatsexamen absolvierte ich mein Referendariat und bin nun seit September 2017 Studienrätin des Freistaates Bayern.
