Could Opposition to Gender-Neutral Language Become a Wedge Issue
In 2023, both Democratic and Republican elected officials supported banning official use of the gender-neutral term “Latinx.” Using a nationally representative survey sample, this study examines whether opposition to the gender-neutral term “Latinx” suggests a potential wedge issue that cuts across partisanship. We find that opposition to “Latinx” is significantly higher among Republican partisans, those who disapprove of Joe Biden as president, …
Anti-Science Populism Versus Brazil's Covid-19 Vaccination Program
Can civil servants protect the administrative state from illiberal populism? We argue that bureaucratic success in fending off illiberal populism necessitates both a supportive institutional environment and overcoming populist rhetoric meant to undermine public confidence in policy expertise. The Covid-19 pandemic in Brazil is a case study of populist antipathy toward a professional public health service. Brazil's public health officials were abl…
The Politics of Immigration Across the United States
In recent years, Republicans and Democrats have drifted toward polarized immigration policy positions, forestalling congressional efforts at comprehensive reform. In this book Gary M. Reich helps explain why some states have enacted punitive policies toward their immigrant populations, while others have stepped up efforts to consider all immigrants as de facto citizens. Reich argues that state policies reflect differing immigrant communities acro…
One Model Does Not Fit All
This article addresses conceptual and measurement challenges that complicate the study of state immigrant policies. First, given the multiple facets of immigrant‐related policy, policy‐specific effects may be obscured by highly aggregated outcomes variables. Second, variables of interest often capture both time‐varying and time‐invariant effects, potentially producing coefficients that are uninterpretable averages of both processes. This article …
Hitting a Wall? The Trump Administration Meets Immigration Federalism
Immigration policy over the last decade has been characterized by sustained congressional inaction, unilateral executive action, and an intensification of policy activity at the state and local level. The combination of immigration federalism and congressional fecklessness means that, in spite of radical differences in policy intent, Donald Trump's nativist agenda faces constraints similar to those that undermined Barack Obama's integrationist ag…
Immigrant legislation, across and within the United States
State governments are now the principal source of immigrant legislation in the US. Existing research presents contradictory findings concerning the sources of pro- and anti-immigration state legislation. However, research has not adequately accounted for the multidimensional nature of immigrant legislation and the fact that many variables hypothesized to affect state legislation encompass both within-state, time-varying effects and time-invariant…
Planting in Fertile Soil
Objective Are increases in citizen demand for guns a boon to advocates of firearms deregulation? We examine this question via state firearms legislation approved between 2009 and 2013, a period marked both by state activism regarding firearms and large surges in the demand for guns in response to Barack Obama's two presidential elections. Methods We conduct a multivariate analysis of an original data set of state firearms laws approved between 20…
The Rise (and Frequent Fall) of Evangelical Politicians
Latin American evangelicals have become a common presence in legislative politics. Brazil exemplifies the potential clout of evangelical legislators and a troubling tendency toward political corruption. This article explains the quality of evangelical interest representation by focusing on church organization and theology, arguing that evangelicals approach electoral politics via three different modes: rejection; participation as individual, poli…
Immigration Restriction in the States
Recent disputes over possible state preemption of federal immigration authority reflect the rise of a coalition that has sought to use state policy to restrict immigration nationwide. The advance of this restrictionist agenda, and the potential for conflicts over federalism, primarily reflect advocates' ability to wrest control of state Republican parties from interests that favor access to immigrant labor. Direct democracy has played a supportiv…
Educating Citizens or Defying Federal Authority? A Comparative Study of In-State Tuition for Undocumented Students
Recent years have witnessed a proliferation of state government policies addressing immigration-related issues. This article addresses an example of state policy regarding immigration: since 2001, 11 state legislatures have granted undocumented high school graduates in-state tuition status should they wish to attend public post-secondary schools, while 18 others have considered, and rejected, the same policy. We argue that these outcomes are larg…
Educating Kids’ Versus ‘Coddling Criminals
As more children of undocumented workers graduate from U.S. high schools, many states are considering laws to grant these students in-state tuition status. Kansas, which adopted such a law in 2004, was an unlikely venue for this kind of policy, considering the negative attitudes toward illegal immigrants among the state's residents as well as its relatively small share of Hispanic residents. We argue that the passage of Kansas's in-state tuition …
Constitutional coordination in unstable party systems
The evolution of new party systems
Executive Decree Authority in Brazil
At first glance, wide‐ranging presidential decree authority suggests executive branch domination of legislatures. However, decree power may also be a rational delegation of authority by legislators, in accord with their political objectives. Seen in this light, the key issue for legislators is not halting decree authority but reducing the agency losses that result from delegation. This paper shows how decree authority, as practiced in Brazil, con…
Categorizing Political Regimes
Many existing datasets used to categorize political regimes present problems for researchers, either because they were not specifically designed for that purpose, or because they employ dichotomous coding schemes that do not adequately capture the mix of democratic and authoritarian practices that coexist in many political systems. This article discusses these problems and introduces a dataset designed to overcome them - an expanded and updated v…
Coordinating Party Choice in Founding Elections
This article examines the causes of party system fragmentation in new democracies, arguing that party formation and coordination in emerging party systems are closely linked to the politics of democratization. In particular, elections that occur late within regime transitions are likely to produce more fragmented party systems than are early founding elections; in situations of economic instability, the decentralizing effect of a late founding el…
Coordinating Restraint
Coordinating Restraint
Although previous studies have posited a link between new democracies and economic policy, theoretical justification for this hypothesis has been sketchy, while econometric tests have been lacking. This article explores the link between public finance and democratic age via the notion of “competitive externalities” and their effect upon monetary financing of expenditures (seignorage). The argument is that transitions to democratic rule heighten t…
