  • Indian Boarding Schools for the Gain of White Settlers: A Case Study of Rapid City Indian School

    Open Access•Jean Reith Schroedel, Melissa Rogers et al.•ARTICLE•American Indian Culture and…•2026

    This paper examines how the Rapid City Indian School (1898–1934) was mobilized to advance white settler economic interests in western South Dakota. Using a political-economy lens, the study traces two linked processes: the promised economic benefits to Rapid City from siting a large, off-reservation boarding school, and the redistribution of RCIS land after closure. Contemporary boosters aggressively pursued the school for jobs, contracts, and fe…

  • Revisiting the Origins of Felony Disenfranchisement in the United States

    Open Access•Jean Reith Schroedel, Jean Schroedel et al.•ARTICLE•Studies in American Political…•2024•Cited by: 2

    We trace the origin of felony disenfranchisement from the colonial period through Reconstruction. On the eve of the Civil War, three-quarters of states had criminal disenfranchisement statutes. These laws were based on “legal moralism” principles, which limited the franchise to those in good standing with the community. Efforts at disenfranchisement grew as access to the ballot increased and criminal justice reforms replaced capital and corporal …

  • Achieving electoral equity after Brnovich: A case study of Native activism in Nevada

    Open Access•Jean Reith Schroedel, Jean Schroedel et al.•ARTICLE•Social Science Quarterly•2024•References: 20

    Objective We examine the role of local election officials in voter suppression of Native Americans and opportunities for legal redress using state law. Methods We present a case study of the Shoshone and Paiute Tribal leaders, Native activists, and lawyers in Elko County, Nevada, to provide electoral access on the Duck Valley Reservation. Results We document the successful legal strategy against Elko County officials in state court following a ne…

  • Structural Racism, the USPS, and Voting by Mail On- and Off-Reservation in Arizona

    Open Access•Jean Reith Schroedel, Jean Schroedel et al.•ARTICLE•Studies in American Political…•2023

    During the 2020 election, voting by mail greatly expanded due to concerns with COVID-19. While voting by mail is relatively easy for most individuals, who have United States Postal Service (USPS) residential mail service, it is much more difficult for those with nonstandard mail service. In this article, we examine how decisions made by the USPS in the latter part of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries have resulted in deeply entrenched …

  • Modern judicial confirmation hearings and institutional support for the Supreme Court

    Open Access•Christopher N Krewson, Christopher Krewson et al.•ARTICLE•Social Science Quarterly•2023•Cited by: 5•References: 11

    Background We argue that the political and partisan nature of modern judicial confirmation hearings weakens institutional support for the U.S. Supreme Court. Methods In making this argument, we respond directly to Carrington and French who, in contrast, focus on the individual behavior of nominees. Building on earlier work (Krewson and Schroedel), we also analyze how public views of the Court changed over the 10 weeks following the Senate confirm…

  • The Gender Gap in Supreme Court Legitimacy

    Open Access•Christopher Krewson, Jean Reith Schroedel•ARTICLE•American Politics Research•2023•References: 48

    Men and women diverge in their political behavior and attitudes. We test whether gender-based variation in political attitudes extends to perceptions of US Supreme Court legitimacy. Using a dataset covering the years 2012–2017, we show that one’s identification as a man or a woman predicts their diffuse support for the Court. In particular, women almost always extend less legitimacy to the Court than men do. This is true within both Republican an…

  • The Relevance of Religion for Political Office: Voter Bias Toward Candidates from Different Religious Backgrounds

    Open Access•Raúl Madrid, Raúl L Madrid et al.•ARTICLE•Political Behavior•2022•Cited by: 6•References: 41

    Over the last several decades, Gallup data shows an increased willingness among members of the public to support presidential candidates from a wide range of religious backgrounds, though a nontrivial proportion of the public is still unwilling to vote for an Atheist, Mormon, or Muslim. What underlies this opposition? We argue that voters evaluate candidates from religious out-groups more negatively on a wide range of dimensions considered desira…

  • Municipal Insurance Pools and Disenfranchisement in Indian Country

    Open Access•Joseph Dietrich, Jean Reith Schroedel et al.•ARTICLE•Social Science Quarterly•2021•Cited by: 1•References: 3

    Objective Our objective is to establish the impact of a litigation pattern used by defendants in voting rights cases in Indian Country which relies on municipal insurance pools and the barring of fee recovery. Methods We use history and case studies from four states to demonstrate the argument. Results Court is the only option for challenging disenfranchisement of voters, but cases require financial resources often unavailable to Native American …

  • Assessing the efficacy of early voting access on Indian reservations: Evidence from a natural experiment in Nevada

    Jean Reith Schroedel, Melissa Rogers et al.•ARTICLE•Politics Groups and Identities•2020•Cited by: 4•References: 21

    An emergency legal injunction in Nevada granted two Indian reservations on-site early voting locations in the 2016 general election. These locations were two of four remote reservations participating in an academic survey to examine Native attitudes toward government and voting. The granting of only two locations out of the four creates reasonable conditions to treat the four cases as a natural experiment in on-site early voting. These cases also…

  • Political Trust and Native American Electoral Participation: An Analysis of Survey Data from Nevada and South Dakota

    Open Access•Jean Reith Schroedel, Jean Schroedel et al.•ARTICLE•Social Science Quarterly•2020•Cited by: 3•References: 29

    Objective . This research analyzes the impact of political trust on Native American electoral participation, using survey responses from roughly 1,500 Native Americans living in South Dakota and Nevada. Method . The in‐person survey taking was conducted at locations in Native communities and with the support of tribal leaders, allowing us to overcome many of the methodological issues that have hampered previous studies. Results . We found much hi…

    Objective We analyze public views of the Supreme Court following the confirmation hearings of Brett M. Kavanaugh. Methods We distributed an online survey days after the Senate confirmed Kavanaugh's appointment. Results Supreme Court legitimacy was weak following the hearings and perceptions of legitimacy varied based on partisanship, gender, and race. However, legitimacy was not strongly related to support for Kavanaugh. Furthermore, respondents …

  • Whose Lives Matter: The Media’s Failure to Cover Police Use of Lethal Force Against Native Americans

    Open Access•Jean Reith Schroedel, Roger J Chin•ARTICLE•Race and Justice•2020•Cited by: 10•References: 51

    The August 9, 2014, police shooting of Michael Brown reinvigorated the Black Lives Matter movement and triggered widespread media scrutiny of police use of lethal force against African Americans. Yet, there is another group, Native Americans, whose members have experienced very high levels of fatal encounters with the police, but whose deaths arguably have not generated media attention. In this research, we tracked the numbers of African American…

    Despite reports of physical violence and psychological abuse against US officeholders, the subject has not been addressed in research at any level of government. This study reports results from survey research of mayors with three aims: examination of the frequency, types, and correlates of experiences of physical violence and psychological abuse among mayors; exploration of gender differences; and estimates of the effects of violence and abuse o…

    A Case Study of Descriptive RepresentationThe Experience of Native American Elected Officials in South Dakota Jean Reith Schroedel (bio) and Artour Aslanian (bio) Political equality, according to Sydney Verba, "refers to the extent to which citizens have an equal voice in governmental decisions" and encompasses not only voting but also being able to hold political office without having to overcome institutional and statutory barriers.1 Yet one of…

  • The Voting Rights Act's Pre-Clearance Provisions: The Experience of Native Americans in South Dakota

    Open Access•Jean Reith Schroedel, Joey Torres et al.•ARTICLE•American Indian Culture and…•2017•Cited by: 2

    During the 1965 debates over the Voting Rights Act, there are only two brief mentions of Native Americans. During the Act's 1975 renewal, Native Americans were mentioned only with respect to their inclusion under the minority language provisions. At no point did the applicability of Section 5's pre-clearance provisions to political jurisdictions with histories of discrimination against Native Americans generate discussion. They also were ignored …

  • Vote Dilution and Suppression in Indian Country

    Open Access•Jean Reith Schroedel, Jean Schroedel et al.•ARTICLE•Studies in American Political…•2015•Cited by: 7•References: 18

    The struggle for Native American voting rights has lasted more than two centuries. Although the 1924 Indian Citizenship Act granted citizenship to indigenous peoples born within the geographic boundaries of the United States, it did not ensure the right to vote. Because the Constitution gives states the power to determine the “times, places, and manner of holding elections,” many states statutorily denied Native Americans the franchise until fede…

  • Charismatic Rhetoric in the 2008 Presidential Campaign: Commonalities and Differences

    Open Access•Jean Reith Schroedel, Jean Schroedel et al.•ARTICLE•Presidential Studies Quarterly•2013•Cited by: 14•References: 24

    For all of the attention given to charisma in media accounts of presidential campaigns, there is surprisingly little systematic research on the use and effect of charismatic rhetoric, even though researchers outside of political science have attempted to deconstruct and analyze the different components of rhetorical speech. We draw from this scholarship to explore the use of different forms of charismatic rhetoric throughout the entire 2008 presi…

  • Finding Her Voice: Hillary Clinton's Rhetoric in the 2008 Presidential Campaign

    Michelle C Bligh, Michelle Bligh et al.•ARTICLE•Women s Studies•2010•Cited by: 7•References: 52

    After her somewhat surprising third place finish in the 2008 Iowa Democratic caucus, the following week’s New Hampshire primary became an almost must win situation for Hillary Clinton. Rather than coasting to a series of easy primary wins, polls were showing Clinton in a dead heat or losing to Obama, with the momentum seemingly swinging toward the younger, less experienced first term senator from Illinois. In the context of Obama’s double-digit a…

  • Financial Regulation in the United States: Lessons from History

    Open Access•Paul Peretz, Jean Reith Schroedel•ARTICLE•Public Administration Review•2009•References: 12

    History is institutional memory writ large. One looks at economic history to see what problems recur, what causes them to recur, what solutions have worked best in the past, and which interventions have made the problems worse. The authors argue that a moderately complex interaction between the workings of the financial sector, the way in which the political system is organized, and the administration of regulation makes perfect regulation of the…

  • The Paradox of Protestantism and Women in Elected Office in the United States

    Jennifer L Merolla, Jennifer Merolla et al.•ARTICLE•Women & Politics•2007•Cited by: 12•References: 15

    In cross-national studies, scholars have found that wealthy countries and those with a Protestant tradition are more likely to have higher levels of women in elected office. Even though the United States should then be high in this domain, it lags behind many similarly situated countries. We posit that one reason for this paradox is that Protestantism in the United States is far more socially conservative than is typical in other Protestant count…

We posit that one reason for this paradox is that Protestantism in the United States is far more socially conservative than is typical in other Protestant count…

  • Financial Regulation in the United States: Lessons from History

    Open Access•Paul Peretz, Jean Reith Schroedel•ARTICLE•Public Administration Review•2009•References: 12

    History is institutional memory writ large. One looks at economic history to see what problems recur, what causes them to recur, what solutions have worked best in the past, and which interventions have made the problems worse. The authors argue that a moderately complex interaction between the workings of the financial sector, the way in which the political system is organized, and the administration of regulation makes perfect regulation of the…

  • Finding Her Voice: Hillary Clinton's Rhetoric in the 2008 Presidential Campaign

    Michelle C Bligh, Michelle Bligh et al.•ARTICLE•Women s Studies•2010•Cited by: 7•References: 52

    After her somewhat surprising third place finish in the 2008 Iowa Democratic caucus, the following week’s New Hampshire primary became an almost must win situation for Hillary Clinton. Rather than coasting to a series of easy primary wins, polls were showing Clinton in a dead heat or losing to Obama, with the momentum seemingly swinging toward the younger, less experienced first term senator from Illinois. In the context of Obama’s double-digit a…

    Open Access•Jean Reith Schroedel, Jean Schroedel et al.•ARTICLE•Presidential Studies Quarterly•2013•Cited by: 14•References: 24

    For all of the attention given to charisma in media accounts of presidential campaigns, there is surprisingly little systematic research on the use and effect of charismatic rhetoric, even though researchers outside of political science have attempted to deconstruct and analyze the different components of rhetorical speech. We draw from this scholarship to explore the use of different forms of charismatic rhetoric throughout the entire 2008 presi…

  • Vote Dilution and Suppression in Indian Country

    Open Access•Jean Reith Schroedel, Jean Schroedel et al.•ARTICLE•Studies in American Political…•2015•Cited by: 7•References: 18

    The struggle for Native American voting rights has lasted more than two centuries. Although the 1924 Indian Citizenship Act granted citizenship to indigenous peoples born within the geographic boundaries of the United States, it did not ensure the right to vote. Because the Constitution gives states the power to determine the “times, places, and manner of holding elections,” many states statutorily denied Native Americans the franchise until fede…

  • The Voting Rights Act's Pre-Clearance Provisions: The Experience of Native Americans in South Dakota

    Open Access•Jean Reith Schroedel, Joey Torres et al.•ARTICLE•American Indian Culture and…•2017•Cited by: 2

    During the 1965 debates over the Voting Rights Act, there are only two brief mentions of Native Americans. During the Act's 1975 renewal, Native Americans were mentioned only with respect to their inclusion under the minority language provisions. At no point did the applicability of Section 5's pre-clearance provisions to political jurisdictions with histories of discrimination against Native Americans generate discussion. They also were ignored …

  • Physical violence and psychological abuse against female and male mayors in the United States

    Robert Herrick, Sue Thomas et al.•ARTICLE•Politics Groups and Identities•2019•Cited by: 34•References: 13

    Despite reports of physical violence and psychological abuse against US officeholders, the subject has not been addressed in research at any level of government. This study reports results from survey research of mayors with three aims: examination of the frequency, types, and correlates of experiences of physical violence and psychological abuse among mayors; exploration of gender differences; and estimates of the effects of violence and abuse o…
