...Thanks a lot, GF, for the comment and question. <br /><br />I would argue that power is an overarching force that impacts on all four frameworks. In other words, which framework(s) are the most dominant depends (among other factors) on who are influential agents and on their power resources.<br /><br />The particularity of the political-selective framework is that there is no view of public services that defines their scope in a broad sense, rather the shape of public services depends on the 'negotiations' between different social groups. <br /><br />Having said all that, your comment makes me wonder whether keeping the political-selective framework as a distinct ideal-type is that useful. Will mull it over, thanks again for this inspiring comment. <br /><br />Best, EnricoAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11165091477131383598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3737165044192778761.post-53667053146849506912016-03-05T19:57:32.552+00:002016-03-05T19:57:32.552+00:00Hi Enrico, can you expand a little on where politi...Hi Enrico, can you expand a little on where political dominance fits into the equation. When you describe the political-selective framework you states how social groups and classes make demands for public services. Yet it appears to me that those with political dominance increasingly ration public services in line with their beliefs?. Is this just a negative part of the political selective framework? Given the limitations of democratic or other political engagement I am really interested how power interacts and is interwoven in your framework. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
