The study deals with two different yet closely related sets of questions: Firstly, how do professional politicians pursue their careers in the regional context. And secondly, how do they shape and reshape the political institutions in which they pursue these careers. The monograph is based on extensive empirical research including a comprehensive data set on the careers. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 21st century|2fast 648 7 2000 - 2099|2fast 650 0 Representative government and representation|zSpain|0https ://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008110723 |zCatalonia.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n79089624-781 650 0 Politics, Practical|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85104466|zSpain|zCatalonia.|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/names/n79089624-781 650 7 Representative government and representation.|2fast|0https ://id.worldcat.org/fast/1094941 650 7 Politics, Practical.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1069977 650 7 Politics and government.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1919741 651 0 Scotland|xPolitics and government|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85118858|y21st century.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002012478 651 0 Catalonia (Spain)|xPolitics and government|y21st century. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009118508 651 7 Spain|zCatalonia.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1206043 651 7 Scotland.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1206715 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aStolz, Klaus.|tTowards a regional political class? : Professional politicians and regional institutions in Catalonia and Scotland.|dManchester : Manchester University Press, ©2010|z9780719079795 830 0 Devolution series.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2005180674 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=514911|zOnline eBook.
