The State of American Federalism 2024–2025: Resisting and Reinforcing the Rise of the Transactional Presidency
This article explores the evolving dynamics of American federalism, focusing on the expanding influence of the administrative presidency and the rise of transactional federalism. It examines how recent presidents, particularly Trump and Biden, have utilized executive actions to shape policy, often leading to clashes with state governments. The analysis discusses the impact of the 2024 elections and key Supreme Court decisions about the balance of…
The State of American Federalism 2023–2024: Judicialization of Gridlocked Politics
Contemporary American federalism, while characterized by nationalized policy battles in the states, is also increasingly defined by the centralization of power in the federal judiciary. In this introductory piece of the 2023–2024 Annual Review issue, we unpack the judicialization of federalism politics. This process, we argue, has been facilitated by national political gridlock, defined by increasing dysfunction in Congress, and the growth of the…
The State of American Federalism 2022–2023: Escalating Culture Wars in the States
American federalism in 2022–2023 saw a continued escalation of the culture wars, with persistent battles fought between the heavily polarized political parties, different levels of government (including federal versus state governments and state versus local governments), and between states and private business. Policy conflicts have centered on a variety of issues related to reproductive rights, K-12 education, and gun policy, among others. This…
Climate Change Policymaking in the States: A View at 2020
Climate change policymaking has stalled at the federal level in the United States, especially since Donald Trump’s election as president. Concurrently, extreme weather, rising sea levels, and other climatic effects have increased the salience of climate change in the mass public and among elected officials. In response, legislators in state governments increasingly introduce and adopt policies associated with climate change. In this article, we e…
The importance of salience: Public Opinion and State Policy Action on Climate Change
How does the salience of environmental issues influence climate policy adoption in the American states? This article considers how two aspects of public salience, issue problem status and issue attention, work with environmental interest group membership to influence climate policy adoption in the American states. We contribute to the theoretical development of issue salience and offer alternative measures that capture differences in salience acr…
How to win friends and influence people: Climate Scientists’ Perspectives on Their Relationship With and Influence on Government Officials
The use of scientific information in the policy-making process is prevalent in today’s society, and political figures frequently consult scientists and experts when considering complex issues like climate change. While policy process literature concerning agenda setting and policy networks, such as epistemic communities and advocacy coalitions, considers the role of scientists in policymaking, very little work has provided insight into the relati…
