Prior to this point\, interest groups had largely avoided the electoral arena and focused instead on legislative lo bbying – an activity they pursued in a bipartisan fashion. Amid the eco nomic and political turmoil of the early 1930s\, however\, business and l abor interests would enter the electoral fray in a newly visible and asse rtive way\, choosing opposing party sides in the 1936 election. They forg ed new organizations – the "American Liberty League" and "Labor's Non-P artisan League" – to do battle on behalf of their favored presidential contenders\, and carved out a new financial role for non-party actors in election campaigns. Though they also took pains to distinguish their effo rts from truly partisan activity\, the strategies and tactics these two L eagues formulated\, and the justifications in which they would embed thei r newly assertive electoral role\, would set the stage for a much more pr oactive and partisan style of interest group electioneering in years to c ome.

A recent report by the Global Justice Clinic at the NYU School of
Law documents the disproportionate use of force at Occupy
demo
nstrations by the NYPD. Similar stories have been published in
new
spapers across the nation since the 1960s. Scholars have sought
to
explain the causes of police repression at protests\, but few have
examined the use of force at events with peaceful participants.
Moreover\, a possible explanatory variable is missing from the
lit
erature: the political ideology of the protest message. This study\,
relying on newspaper accounts and large-N analyses\, finds that police
violence at peaceful protests is extremely rare. Yet\, liberal pr
otests are
twice as likely to receive force from police and three
times as likely to
receive police violence than conservative event
s. The predictive value
of this theory holds between 1960 and 1980
\, but becomes less
powerful after 1980.

Others\, however\, assert that religious dogma tism may lead to disengagement with the secular world and politics more g enerally. These two perspectives have resulted in contradictory findings on a key aspect of civic ability: political knowledge. I argue that while religiosity may indeed increase individuals' engagement in a wide array of political activities\, religious commitment decreases the ability to a cquire accurate information about certain types of political facts. This argument is tested with a number of national surveys\, and I find that wh ile religion has a non-negative effect on knowledge of general political structures and figures\, it increases the perception of media hostility\, which leads to lower levels of political knowledge about policy-specific and surveillance information.

SUMMARY:For Democracy and a Caste System? World War II\, Race\, and Democ
ratic Inclusion in the United States by Steven White
DESCRIPTION:Scholars of American politics often assume World War II liber
alized white racial attitudes\, in turn prompting a liberal shift in the
federal government's position on civil rights. However\, while intuitivel
y plausible\, this relationship is generally not verified empirically. Us
ing both survey and archival evidence\, I argue the war's impact on white
racial attitudes is more limited than is often claimed\, but that the wa
r shaped and constrained the executive branch's civil rights agenda in wa
ys institutional scholars have generally ignored. The evidence is present
ed in three parts: First\, I demonstrate that for whites in the mass publ
ic\, while there is some evidence of slight liberalization on issues of r
acial prejudice\, this does not extend to policies addressing racial ineq
uities. Second\, there is some evidence of racial moderation among white
veterans\, relative to their counterparts who did not serve. However\, th
e range of issues is limited in scope. Third\, the war had both compellin
g and constraining impacts on the Roosevelt administration's actions on c
ivil rights. In summary\, World War II had myriad implications for Americ
a's racial order. It did not broadly liberalize white attitudes\, but its
effect on the White House was a precursor to the form of "Cold War civil
rights" that would emerge in the 1950s.
