  • Outside Lobbying

    Public Opinion and Interest Group Strategies

    In Outside Lobbying, Ken Kollman explores why and when interest group leaders in Washington seek to mobilize the public in order to influence policy decisions in Congress. In the past, political scientists have argued that lobbying groups make outside appeals primarily because of their own internal dynamics--to recruit new members, for example. Kollman, however, grants a more important role to the ... Leer más

  • The Formation of National Party Systems

    Federalism and Party Competition in Canada, Great Britain, India, and the United States

    Pradeep Chhibber and Ken Kollman rely on historical data spanning back to the eighteenth century from Canada, Great Britain, India, and the United States to revise our understanding of why a country's party system consists of national or regional parties. They demonstrate that the party systems in these four countries have been shaped by the authority granted to different levels of government. ... Leer más

  • Post-Racial or Most-Racial?

    Race and Politics in the Obama Era

    When Barack Obama won the presidency, many posited that we were entering into a post-racial period in American politics. Regrettably, the reality hasn't lived up to that expectation. Instead, Americans' political beliefs have become significantly more polarized by racial considerations than they had been before Obama's presidency—in spite of his administration's considerable efforts to neutralize ...

  • The Limits of Party

    Congress and Lawmaking in a Polarized Era

    Series series Chicago Studies in American Politics
    To many observers, Congress has become a deeply partisan institution where ideologically-distinct political parties do little more than engage in legislative trench warfare. A zero-sum, winner-take-all approach to congressional politics has replaced the bipartisan comity of past eras. If the parties cannot get everything they want in national policymaking, then they prefer gridlock and stalemate ... Leer más

  • Local Elections and the Politics of Small-Scale Democracy

    Local government is the hidden leviathan of American politics: it accounts for nearly a tenth of gross domestic product, it collects nearly as much in taxes as the federal government, and its decisions have an enormous impact on Americans' daily lives. Yet political scientists have few explanations for how people vote in local elections, particularly in the smaller cities, towns, and suburbs where ... Leer más

  • Economic Ideas in Political Time

    The Rise and Fall of Economic Orders from the Progressive Era to the Global Financial Crisis

    Over the past century, the rise and fall of economic policy orders has been shaped by a paradox, as intellectual and institutional stability have repeatedly caused market instability and crisis. To highlight such dynamics, this volume offers a theory of economic ideas in political time. The author counters paradigmatic and institutionalist views of ideas as enabling self-reinforcing path ...

    "Hopkins is a sure-footed guide to the twilight of local politics, and he's aware of the risks that these developments may pose." ― The New YorkerIn a campaign for state or local office these days, you're as likely today to hear accusations that an opponent advanced Obamacare or supported Donald Trump as you are to hear about issues affecting the state or local community. This is because American ... Leer más

  • Revolving Door Lobbying

    Public Service, Private Influence, and the Unequal Representation of Interests

    In recent decades Washington has seen an alarming rise in the number of “revolving door lobbyists”—politicians and officials cashing in on their government experience to become influence peddlers on K Street. These lobbyists, popular wisdom suggests, sell access to the highest bidder. Revolving Door Lobbying tells a different, more nuanced story. As an insider interviewed in the book observes, ...

  • The Pseudo-Democrat's Dilemma

    Why Election Observation Became an International Norm

    de Susan D. Hyde ...
    Why did election monitoring become an international norm? Why do pseudo-democrats—undemocratic leaders who present themselves as democratic—invite international observers, even when they are likely to be caught manipulating elections? Is election observation an effective tool of democracy promotion, or is it simply a way to legitimize electoral autocracies? In The Pseudo-Democrat's Dilemma, Susan ... Leer más

  • Developing Countries and the Doha Development Agenda of the WTO

    Edición de Pitou van Dijck, Gerrit Faber ...
    Series series Routledge Studies in the Modern World Economy

    The Domestic Politics of American Foreign Policy

    How U.S. domestic politics shapes the nation's foreign policyWhen engaging with other countries, the U.S. government has a number of different policy instruments at its disposal, including foreign aid, international trade, and the use of military force. But what determines which policies are chosen? Does the United States rely too much on the use of military power and coercion in its foreign ... Leer más

  • What Unions No Longer Do

    From workers’ wages to presidential elections, labor unions once exerted tremendous clout in American life. In the immediate post–World War II era, one in three workers belonged to a union. The fraction now is close to one in ten, and just one in twenty in the private sector—the lowest in a century. The only thing big about Big Labor today is the scope of its problems. While many studies have ... Leer más
