This single volume work examines whether class political divisions have increased or decreased over time in America.

However, counter to these scholarly and pundit mainstream, in Class and Party in American Politics Jeffrey M.

Parties and the politicians that comprise them seek control of government in order to implement their visions of proper public policy. To gain control parties need to win elections, and winning elections requires assembling an electoral coalition that is larger than that crafted by the opposition. Parties are always looking for opportunities to build such winning coalitions, and opportunities are always there, but they...
