United States: open polity but weak political output.
Polity:
-Strong Congress
-Openness of fragmented executive
-Lack of tightly integrated political parties
-Lack of structured intermediation between executive and interest groups
Political Output:
-Fragmented executive and political parties
-Little control over economic actors
-Strong judiciary
-Used assimilative strategies, like working within established institutions. The results were having a strong influence in regulatory arena (able to require detailed protocol, etc), but no policy or law came out of it.
France: closed polity but strong political output
Polity:
-Strong executive dominated weak legislature.
-Access to policy limited to select groups
-Two strong political parties vying for power organized around class issues
Political Output:
-Very strong executive, no fragmentation.
-Used confrontational movement strategies, like disruptive protests and sit-ins. Resulted in little to no policy change because of no input, and repression of anti-nuclear demonstrations, but did result in new green environmental political parties.
