Opis

In Incremental Polarization, Justin Buchler fills critical gaps in our understanding of legislative polarization by crafting a unified spatial theory of legislative elections, parties, and roll call voting. He contends that we need to move beyond elections and factor in Congress members' behavior in roll call voting-where a different but related spatial continuum operates.

Recenzje

In this book, Buchler is asking all the right questions and providing some good answers to them...the book remains quite an impressive accomplishment.
