Eternal Bandwagon: The Politics of Presidential Selection
ISBN: 9783030518011 / Angielski / Miękka / 2021 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Orthodox reporting and conventional scholarship focuses on the factors that distinguish each presidential contest and then attempts to explain them. This book rather, demonstrates that the politics of presidential nomination has been remarkably stable in the United States since the 1830s and right through to 2020. A common bandwagon dynamic, rolling once through party organizations and now through presidential primaries, permits a simple measure that has predicted nominations well before the decisive threshold was reached, while allowing precise comparisons across the years. So it...

ISBN: 9780674421615 / Angielski / Twarda / 1988 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

End of Southern Exceptionalism: Class, Race, and Partisan Change in the Postwar South
ISBN: 9780674032491 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The transformation of Southern politics after World War II changed the political life not just of this distinctive region, but of the entire nation. Until now, the critical shift in Southern political allegiance from Democratic to Republican has been explained, by scholars and journalists, as a white backlash to the civil rights revolution. In this myth-shattering book, Byron Shafer and Richard Johnston refute that view, one stretching all the way back to V. O. Key in his classic book Southern Politics. The true story is instead one of dramatic class reversal, beginning in...

ISBN: 9780801850196 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Why do voters so often exhibit patterns of policy preference vastly different from what analysts and strategists predict? And why do these same voters consistently cast ballots that ensure the continuation of -divided government?- In The Two Majorities Byron Shafer and William Claggett offer groundbreaking political analysis that resolves many of the seeming contradictions in the contemporary American political scene. Provocatively, the authors argue that each party's best strategy for success is not to try to take popular positions on the whole range of issues, but to...

ISBN: 9781108718868 / Angielski / Miękka / 2022 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. A long-standing debate in American politics is about the proper structure for political parties and the relative power that should be afforded to party professionals versus issue activists. In this book, Byron E. Shafer and Regina L. Wagner draw systematically on new data and indexes to evaluate the extent to which party structure changed from the 1950s on, and what the consequences have been for policy responsiveness, democratic representation, and party alignment across different issue domains. They argue that the reputed triumph of volunteer parties since the 1970s has been less...
