Overview
Understanding dysfunction in American political institutions requires an integrated view of America’s two distinctive political parties. Because efforts to improve American governance will inevitably involve both parties, reformers must rely on a full understanding of each party’s goals, constituencies, and tendencies. This grant will support an ongoing research program led by Matt Grossman, Associate Professor of Political Science at Michigan State University, in which he and his collaborators are investigating asymmetries between Democrats and Republicans in policy debate arguments, media and research use, and behavior in political institutions in order to understand their effects on American governance and public policy.
