American Politics and Government

Who Wants to Run?How the Devaluing of Political Office Drives PolarizationAndrew B. HallIn Who Wants To Run?, Andrew B. Hall suggests that the increasing reluctance of moderate citizens to run for office is contributing to the ideological gulf between Democrats and Republicans in today’s American politics. Hall argues that our political system discourages moderate candidates from seek-ing office in the first place. To understand what is wrong with our legislatures, then, we need to ask ourselves the question: who wants to run? If we want more moderate legislators, we need to make them a better job offer.Chicago Studies in American Politics

Billionaires and Stealth PoliticsBenjamin I. Page, Jason Seawright, and Matthew J. Lacombe“Incredibly important. The authors provide—for the first time—a clear sense of the politics and politi-cal activity of the top one hundred billionaires in America, matching what billionaires have said with what they’ve done and showing the troubling trans-parency gap that is critical to the evolution of policy. Billionaires and Stealth Politics is a key addition to understanding our current political reality, focused on its most significant lever.”—Lawrence Lessig, author of America, Compromised2018 224 p. 6 x 9 1 line drawing, 22 tables 2 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-58612-0 $25.00 Your Price: $20.00

Presidents and Parties in the Public MindGary C. JacobsonWith Presidents and Parties in the Public Mind, Gary C. Jacobson argues that the expansion of the executive branch in the twentieth century that gave presidents a greater role in national government also gave them an enlarged public presence, magnifying their role as the parties’ public voice and face. Jacob-son concludes by looking at the most recent presi-dents’ effects on our growing partisan polarization, analyzing Obama’s contribution to this process and speculating about Trump’s potential for amplifying the widening demographic and cultural divide.2019 272 p. 6 x 9 92 line drawings, 54 tables 3 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-58934-3 $30.00 Your Price: $24.00

The Politics of PetulanceAmerica in an Age of ImmaturityAlan Wolfe“A withering broadside against the immaturity that infests American politics, revealing itself in populism and demagoguery. Both the left and the right take it on the chin in this tough-minded analysis by Wolfe. . . . This is a persuasive and alarming book.”—Kirkus “[Wolfe’s] most important observation in this timely book is that Americans who waste their time disdaining Washington and blaming everyone else for Trumpism need once again to stop ignoring the better angels of our history and recognize the noble possibilities of politics.”—Susan Jacoby, author of The Age of American Unreason in a Culture of Lies2018 224 p. 6 x 9 2 halftones, 1 table 4 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-67911-2 $18.00 Your Price: $14.40

Conservative InnovatorsHow States Are Challenging Federal PowerBen MerrimanConservative Innovators traces the activity of far-right conservatives in Kansas who have in the past decade used the powers of state-level offices to fight federal regulation on a range of topics from gun control to voting processes to Medicaid. Ben Merriman then expands the scope of the book to look at the tactics used by conservative state governments across the country to resist federal regulations, underscoring the newly important role of state governments in today’s American political landscape.2019 232 p. 6 x 9 3 line drawings, 8 tables 5 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-62031-2 $32.50 Your Price: $26.00

Democracy in America?What Has Gone Wrong and What We Can Do About ItBenjamin I. Page and Martin Gilens“There is an urgency to the project of repair-ing America’s democracy. This book is the most important contribution so far. Powerful, compre-hensive and original, it gives every American hope and a map—which is all this democracy has ever needed.”—Lawrence Lessig, Harvard University “Provocative suggestions for how to revive democratic practices through citizen action and institutional reform alike.”—Kirkus “Brilliant, indispensable, and highly accessible.” —New York Journal of Books2018 352 p. 6 x 9 3 halftones, 12 line drawings, 2 tables 6 Cloth ISBN: 978-0-226-50896-2 $30.00 Your Price: $24.00

Bending the RulesProcedural Politicking in the BureaucracyRachel Augustine PotterWith Bending the Rules, Rachel Augustine Potter shows that rulemaking is not the rote administrative activity it is commonly imagined to be but rather an intensely political activity in its own right. Tracing the rulemaking process from when an agency first begins working on a rule to when it completes that regulatory action, Potter shows how bureaucrats use procedures to resist interference from Congress, the President, and the courts at each stage of the process. This exercise reveals that unelected bureaucrats wield considerable influence over the direction of public policy in the United States.2019 256 p. 6 x 9 24 line drawings, 22 tables 7 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-62174-6 $30.00 Your Price: $24.00

Uncivil AgreementHow Politics Became Our IdentityLilliana Mason“This is the kind of research that will change not just how you think about the world but how you think about yourself.”—Vox “Sobering. . . . Mason argues that factors such as class, race, religion, gender, and sexuality used to cut across one another to a significant extent. . . . In the past decades, though, ‘partisan, ideological, religious, and racial identities have moved into strong align-ment. . . . A single vote can now indicate a person’s partisan preference as well as his or her religion, race, ethnicity, gender, neighborhood and favorite grocery store.” —New Yorker2018 192 p. 6 x 9 43 line drawings, 15 tables 8 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-52454-2 $20.00 Your Price: $16.00

Conspiracies of ConspiraciesHow Delusions Have Overrun AmericaThomas Milan Konda“The theories Konda weighs and finds wanting are fascinating in their perversity, from chemtrails to climate change deniers. A book that deserves wide circulation and consideration.”—Kirkus “Konda’s survey is perhaps the most compre-hensive attempt yet to record and understand the phenomenon of conspiracy theory as it applies to American politics. . . . [he] manages to give a clear picture of a subject that is more often obscured under a deluge of intensely partisan opinions.” —Fortean Times2019 432 p. 6 x 9 12 halftones 10 Cloth ISBN: 978-0-226-58576-5 $30.00 Your Price: $24.00

America, CompromisedLawrence Lessig“America, Compromised is about the country in the Trump era, but not about Trump. . . . [Lessig’s] focus is not on bad people doing bad things, but on how incentives across a range of institutions have created corruption, with deleterious consequences for the nation.”—New York Times Book Review “Lessig lays out a working definition and theory of corruption that is at once simple and comprehen-sive, a devastating argument that America is racing for the cliff’s edge of structural, possibly irreversible tyranny.”—Cory DoctorowBerlin Family Lectures

The Great BroadeningHow the Vast Expansion of the Policymaking Agenda Transformed American PoliticsBryan D. Jones, Sean M. Theriault, and Michelle WhymanBeginning in the late 1950s and continuing through the 1970s, the federal government extended its scope into policy arenas previously left to civil society or state and local governments. The Great Broadening examines in detail the causes, internal dynamics, and consequences of this extended burst of activity. The authors argue that the broadening of government responsibilities into new policy areas such as health care, civil rights, and gender issues and the increas-ing depth of existing government programs explain many of the changes in American politics since the 1970s.2019 326 p. 6 x 9 90 line drawings, 4 tables 13 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-62594-2 $32.50 Your Price: $26.00

Good Enough for Government WorkThe Public Reputation Crisis in America (And What We Can Do to Fix It)Amy E. LermanWith Good Enough for Government Work, Lerman argues persuasively that the reputation of govern-ment is itself an impediment to government’s ability to achieve the common good. In addition to improv-ing its efficiency and effectiveness, government therefore has an equally critical task: countering the belief that the public sector is mired in incompe-tence. Lerman shows how negative perceptions are highly resistant to change and how citizens’ beliefs about government can quickly become a self-ful-filling prophecy. The book concludes with practical solutions for how the government might improve its reputation and roll back current efforts to eliminate or privatize public services.Chicago Studies in American Politics

The Increasingly United StatesHow and Why American Political Behavior NationalizedDaniel J.

Learning One’s Native TongueCitizenship, Contestation, and Conflict in AmericaTracy B. StrongWith Learning One’s Native Tongue, Tracy B. Strong explores the development of the concept of American citizenship and what it means to belong to this coun-try, starting with the Puritans in the seventeenth century and continuing to the present day. He ex-amines the conflicts over the meaning of citizenship in the writings and speeches of prominent thinkers and leaders and analyzes the ensuing changes in the conception of citizenship, paying attention to what difference each change makes and what each particu-lar conception entails socially and politically.2019 312 p. 6 x 9 18 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-62322-1 $30.00 Your Price: $24.00

Citizen BrownRace, Democracy, and Inequality in the St. Louis SuburbsColin Gordon“Citizen Brown arrives at a propitious moment, when many Americans are still trying to make sense of how and why one of the most explosive incidents in American race relations—the 2014 killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri—occurred not in a center city, where so many of the nation’s best-known racial dramas have played out over the last fifty years, but in a suburb. What Gordon accomplishes here is a much needed, much deeper understanding of what happened there, even when Ferguson isn’t front and center. Citizen Brown is a pioneering foray into a larger, more complicated consideration of the recent history of race relations in American suburbs.”—Mark Krasovic, author of The Newark Frontier2019 216 p. 6 x 9 46 halftones 21 Cloth ISBN: 978-0-226-64748-7 $35.00 Your Price: $28.00

The Browning of the New SouthJennifer A. Jones“This provocative book upends the conventional wisdom about relationships between Latinos and African-Americans. Jones shows in vivid detail how shared experiences of hostility from the white major-ity generate new forms of solidarity and organiza-tion. The Browning of the New South has important implications for the future of American politics and scholarly understandings of cross-ethnic coalitions.” —David FitzGerald, coauthor of Culling the Masses “Jones offers a dynamic, complex, compellingly argued account of the remarkably understudied black-Latino alliances. . . .

Dangerous CounselAccountability and Advice in Ancient GreeceMatthew LandauerWith Dangerous Counsel, Matthew Landauer analyzes the sometimes ferocious and unpredictable politics of accountability in ancient Greece and offers novel readings of ancient history, philosophy, rhetoric, and drama. In comparing the demos to a tyrant, thinkers such as Herodotus and Plato were attempting to work out a theory of the badness of unaccountable power; to understand the basic logic of accountability; and to explore the ways in which political discourse is profoundly shaped by institutions and power relationships. In the process they created strikingly portable theories of counsel and accountability that traveled across political regime types and remain relevant to our contemporary political dilemmas.2019 256 p. 6 x 9 2 halftones 39 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-65379-2 $30.00 Your Price: $24.00

“Discourse and Truth” and “Parresia”Michel FoucaultEdited by Henri-Paul Fruchaud and Daniele LorenziniWith an Introduction by Frédéric Gros

“Today, when the questions of truth and truth-telling could not be more urgent, this compendium is an indispensable resource, tracing the problems back to the fifth century BCE and recovering the birth of the very notion of the truth-teller.

Political Thought and Theory 9

In Conversation with Leo StraussLeo Strauss on HegelLeo StraussEdited by Paul Franco

Leo Strauss on Hegel reconstructs Strauss’s 1965 seminar on Hegel at the University of Chicago, supplemented by passages from an earlier ver-sion of the seminar. Strauss focused his seminar on the lectures collected in The Philosophy of History, which he considered more accessible than Hegel’s written works. In his own lectures on Hegel, Strauss continues his project of dem-onstrating how modern philosophers related to ancient thought and explores the development and weaknesses of modern political theory. In addition to a relatively complete transcript, Leo Strauss on Hegel also includes annotations that bring context and clarity to the text.The Leo Strauss Transcript Series

The Gateway to the PacificJapanese Americans and the Remaking of San FranciscoMeredith OdaFocusing on the development of the Japanese Cul-tural and Trade Center in San Francisco, Meredith Oda shows how this multilayered story was embed-ded within a larger story of the changing institutions and ideas that were shaping the city and its identity as the “Gateway to the Pacific.” During the formative decades following World War II, Oda argues, San Francisco’s relations with and ideas about Japan were being forged within intimate sites of civic and com-munity life. San Francisco’s story is an inherently local one, but it also a broader story of a city collec-tively reimagining its place in a global economy.Historical Studies of Urban America

Liberal SuppressionSection 501(c)(3) and the Taxation of SpeechPhilip Hamburger“While there are many books about the role of religion and politics and a large literature on the constitutional implications of tax exemptions and the regulation of nonprofits, none bring these topics together like Hamburger’s sophisticated, original, and compelling arguments.

Prohibition, the Constitution, and States’ RightsSean BeienburgIn this book, Sean Beienburg recovers a largely forgotten constitutional debate, revealing how Prohibition became a battlefield on which skir-mishes of American political development, including the debate over federalism and states’ rights, were fought.

None of Your Damn BusinessPrivacy in the United States from the Gilded Age to the Digital AgeLawrence Cappello“Tracing a century of debates on topics from national security to reproductive rights, None of Your Damn Business offers a lively, instructive account of Ameri-cans’ ambivalent (and often muddled) thinking about privacy.”—Sarah Igo, author of The Known Citizen: A History of Privacy in Modern America “Thoroughly researched and deftly told . . . a his-tory of privacy written for and about Wall Street and Main Street, government and the courts, intelligence operatives and digital entrepreneurs, current and future citizens. It deserves our full attention.” —David Nasaw, author of The Patriarch: The Remarkable Life and Turbulent Times of Joseph P. Kennedy2019 352 p. 6 x 9 6 halftones 102 Cloth ISBN: 978-0-226-55774-8 $30.00 Your Price: $24.00

The Conservative Case for Class ActionsBrian T. FitzpatrickSince the 1960s, the class action lawsuit has been a powerful tool for holding businesses accountable. Yet years of attacks by corporate America and unfavor-able rulings by the Supreme Court have left its future uncertain. In this book, Brian T. Fitzpatrick makes the case for the importance of class action litiga-tion from an unexpected political perspective: an unabashedly conservative point of view. Offering a novel argument that will surprise partisans on all sides, The Conservative Case for Class Actions is sure to breathe new life into this long-running debate.2019 272 p. 6 x 9 103 Cloth ISBN: 978-0-226-65933-6 $32.50 Your Price: $26.00

The Corporate Contract in Changing TimesIs the Law Keeping Up?Edited by Steven Davidoff Solomon and Randall Stuart ThomasSteven Davidoff Solomon and Randall Stuart Thomas bring together leading corporate law scholars, judges, and lawyers from top corporate law firms to explore what needs to change and what has prevented reform thus far. Among the topics addressed are how the law could be adapted to the threat to corporations from activist hedge funds and how statutory laws could be reviewed in the wake of appraisal arbitrage. Together, the contributors surface promising paths forward for future corporate law and public policy.2019 336 p. 6 x 9 1 line drawing, 1 table 105 Cloth ISBN: 978-0-226-59940-3 $55.00 Your Price: $44.00

CEO LeadershipNavigating the New Era in Corporate GovernanceThomas A. Cole“Beautifully weaves together corporate law doctrine, wisdom gleaned from decades in corporate practice, and business realities to provide insightful and important lessons for CEOs, directors, and students of corporate governance. ”—Guhan Subramanian, Harvard University “With decades of practical application and experience, [Cole] brings a trusted advisor perspec-tive, rooted in a framework of standards, to address real-world governance matters and enable the right outcomes. His body of work, as shared in this book, is a highly relevant and useful tool for boards, man-agement, and shareholders alike.” —Julie M.

Slices and LumpsDivision and Aggregation in Law and LifeLee Anne FennellLee Anne Fennell explores how two types of configuration challenges—carving out useful slices and assembling useful lumps—surface in myriad contexts. With a technology-fueled entrepreneurial explosion underway that is dividing goods, services, and jobs in novel ways, and as urbanization and environmental threats raise the stakes for assembling resources and cooperation, this is a crucial time to confront questions of slicing and lumping. This book reveals configuration’s power and potential—as a unifying concept and as a focus of public and private innovation.2019 320 p. 6 x 9 1 halftone, 7 line drawings 108 Cloth ISBN: 978-0-226-65026-5 $35.00 Your Price: $28.00

Justice ScaliaRhetoric and the Rule of LawEdited by Brian G. Slocum and Francis J. Mootz IIIJustice Antonin Scalia (1936–2016) was the single most important figure in the emergence of the “new originalist” interpretation of the US Constitution, which sought to anchor the court’s interpretation of the Constitution to the ordinary meaning of the words at the time of drafting. In this edited collection, leading scholars from law, political science, philoso-phy, rhetoric, and linguistics look at the ways Scalia framed and stated his arguments. Focusing on rhe-torical strategies rather than the logic or validity of Scalia’s legal arguments, the contributors collectively reveal that Scalia enacted his rigidly conservative vision of the law through his rhetorical framing.2019 288 p. 6 x 9 4 line drawings 109 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-60182-3 $35.00 Your Price: $28.00

Antitrust Law, Second EditionRichard A. PosnerWhen it was first published a quarter of a century ago, Richard Posner’s exposition and defense of an economic approach to antitrust law was a jeremiad against the intellectual disarray that then character-ized the field. As other perspectives on antitrust law have fallen away, Posner’s book has played a major role in transforming the field of antitrust law into a body of economically rational principles largely in accord with the ideas he set forth. 2001 304 p. 6 x 9 111 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-68413-0 $35.00 Your Price: $28.00

Thinking Through StatisticsJohn Levi Martin“Highly recommended . . . A fundamental com-mandment in statistics is ‘Researcher, know thy data.’ Martin takes this commandment seriously. In a set of nine information-rich chapters, he develops a persuasive argument that sociologists have relied too often on statisticians for guidance on how to develop and test empirical models.”—Choice2018 400 p. 6 x 9 15 halftones, 56 line drawings, 25 tables 112 Paper ISBN: 978-0-226-56763-1 $35.00 Your Price: $28.00

Thinking Like a Political ScientistA Practical Guide to Research MethodsChristopher Howard“Howard pulls back the curtain on conducting political science research—actually social research generally—and provides real tools for students to use. . . .
