The Study of Political Parties, 1906–2005: The View from the Journals

Howard L. Reiter

American Political Science Review, 2006, vol. 100, issue 4, 613-618

Abstract: A review of party-related articles in major political science journals over the past century reveals an increase in the incidence of such articles during the behavioral revolution and a decline in the proportion of studies that view parties holistically or in their organizational aspects and an increase in research on mass and legislative behavior. The essay calls for scholars of American parties to merge empirical findings with the generalist and normative concerns of an earlier age, to assess the recent advent of parties as ideologically focused instruments of policymaking.
