Countermobilization: Policy Feedback and Backlash in a Polarized Age: Chicago Studies in American Politics
Autor Eric M. Patashniken Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 dec 2023
The most successful policies not only solve problems. They also build supportive coalitions. Yet, sometimes, policies trigger backlash and mobilize opposition. Although backlash is not a new phenomenon, today’s political landscape is distinguished by the frequency and pervasiveness of backlash in nearly every area of US policymaking, from abortion rights to the Affordable Care Act.
Eric M. Patashnik develops a policy-centered theory of backlash that illuminates how policies stimulate backlashes by imposing losses, overreaching, or challenging existing arrangements to which people are strongly attached. Drawing on case studies of issues from immigration and trade to healthcare and gun control, Countermobilization shows that backlash politics is fueled by polarization, cultural shifts, and negative feedback from the activist government itself. It also offers crucial insights to help identify and navigate backlash risks.

Recenzii
"Drawing on a broad range of contemporary policy issues—ranging from the Affordable Care Act and immigration reform to cultural issues such as gun control, abortion, and gay rights—Patashnik identifies [the' reasons for the increasing frequency and intensity of policy backlash….Patashnik contends that policy makers can help ensure the long-term sustainability of their policies by being aware of the specific factors likely to produce a backlash and, where possible, navigating around them."
"Countermobilization both comprehensively tracks when backlashes occur and takes a deep dive into specific backlashes to offer lessons for scholars and policymakers. . . .Countermobilization is full of useful examples for practitioners and scholars. We should all aim for the book's combination of nuance and big-picture thinking. Less may now be under policymakers’ control, but policymakers should still try to learn from what befell their predecessors."
“It turns out that all actions do not have an equal and opposite reaction. Bringing long overdue attention to the politics of backlash, Eric Patashnik’s masterful analysis tells us why. His arguments will be valuable not only for observers trying to make sense of our ever-more conflictual politics, but for practical policymakers seeking to design reforms that can stand the test of time.”
"Leading policy analyst Eric Patashnik has done it again. He offers a wide-ranging yet penetrating theory of backlash politics, helping us understand when and why the public or organized interests will rise up against enacted policies. Backlash will stand alongside positive feedback, increasing returns, drift, and Patashnik’s own 'durability' as a powerful tool for assessing the life course of public policies."
“Contemporary American politics is incomprehensible without understanding the politics of backlash, as Patashnik demonstrates in this deeply researched and profoundly insightful book. By analyzing a kaleidoscopic array of policies, he reveals how policies themselves contribute to the politics that unfolds. A tour de force.”
“Political backlashes often feel like brush fires that came from nowhere. In this powerful book, Eric Patashnik shows that they are driven by predictable—and therefore at least somewhat avoidable—dynamics. No practitioner of public policy should design efforts at reform without taking into account the invaluable lessons of this pathbreaking book.”
