Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In this pathbreaking work, Elisabeth S. Clemens recovers the social origins of interest group politics in the United States. Between 1890 and 1925, a system centered on elections and party organizations was partially transformed by increasingly prominent legislative and administrative policymaking as well as the insistent participation of nonpartisan organizations.Clemens sheds new light on how farmers, workers, and women invented strategies to circumvent the parties. Voters learned to monitor legislative processes, to hold their representatives accountable at the polls, and to institutionalize their ongoing participation in shaping policy. Closely analyzing the organizational politics in three statesCalifornia, Washington, and Wisconsinshe demonstrates how the political opportunity structure of federalism allowed regional innovations to exert leverage on national political institutions.An authoritative statement on the changes in American politics during the Progressive Era, this book will interest political scientists, sociologists, and American historians.
