Ideological Extremity, Issue Distance, and Voter Defection
Ideological Extremity, Issue Distance, and Voter Defection
The bulk of the literature rejects the argument that Democratic failure in presidential elections between 1968 and 1988 had an ideological basis. Analysis of the interplay of respondents' own issue positions with their perceptions of the parties/candidates suggests a different and rather complex picture. Between 1968 and 1980, the partisan/ideological cores of the two parties-liberal Democrats and conservative Republicans- behave quite differentl…
The Collapse of the Democratic Majority: Economics and Vote Choice since 1952
Puzzles and Confusions: Political Realignment in the 1980s
Few concepts in the social science literature have aroused as much controversy and discussion in recent years as party and electoral realignment.

The research suggests that councillors do not usually choose between representing smaller or larger territorial units; rather, c…
Towards an Attitudinal Theory of Political Participation
Candidate Orientation, Vote Choice, & the Quality of the American Electorate
Scholarly explanations of voting behavior have largely ignored candidate orientation. Analyses which do take voters' concerns into account generally fail to separate these sufficiently from evaluations based on party or issues or content themselves with references to a broad range of general and irrelevant personality traits. In emphasizing the importance of candidate orientation in voting, David Lawrence here proposes a definition limiting candi…
Generational Change in American Politics. Paul R. Abramson
Procedural Norms and Tolerance: A Reassessment
This paper is both a criticism and extension of a small existing literature on procedural norms and tolerance which has been influential in several interpretations of American politics but which suffers from both conceptual and empirical shortcomings.The existing literature concludes that tolerance is not widely distributed in the American mass public: unpopular groups such as Communists or atheists would not be allowed political activity by most…
