Throwing the Party: How the Supreme Court Puts Political Party Organizations Ahead of Voters: Cambridge Studies on Civil Rights and Civil Liberties

Autor Wayne Batchis
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 iun 2022
The Supreme Court's jurisprudence on political parties is rooted in an incomplete story. Parties are, like voluntary clubs, associations of individuals that are represented by a singular organization. However, as political science has long understood, they are much more than this. Parties are also the voters who choose and support their candidates, the elected officials who govern, the activists and volunteers who contribute their time and energy, and the individual and organizational donors who open their wallets. Unfortunately, the Court's framework for understanding America's two-party system has largely ignored this broader conception of political parties. The result has been a distortion of the true nature of the two-party system, and a body of deeply inconsistent and contradictory constitutional case law. From primaries to campaign finance, partisan gerrymandering to ballot access, law and politics scholar Wayne Batchis interrogates, scrutinizes, and offers a proposed solution to this problematic jurisprudence.

Recenzii

'Wayne Batchis's Throwing the Party synthesizes the disparate threads of the Supreme Court's political-party jurisprudence and puts that doctrine into conversation with the political science literature. Lawyers and political scientists will learn a lot about how the other field views the world after reading this terrific book.' Travis Crum, Associate Professor of Law, Washington University in St. Louis, former law clerk to Justices Anthony Kennedy and John Paul Stevens on the U.S. Supreme Court
'Political parties are private organizations with profoundly public effects. We value their rights of association while recognizing major competing First Amendment interests. Professor Batchis deftly navigates this complicated and important area of law with clarity and nuance, offering a thoughtful way forward as we think about the proper legal framework for political parties in this era of intense partisanship.' Derek T. Muller, Professor of Law, Bouma Fellow in Law, University of Iowa College of Law
