Introduction in Response to the Class's Interest in Having a More Diverse Introduction In response to the class’s interest in having a more diverse political party system in the United States, the group was tasked with designing an alternative political landscape for the US. Upon reflecting on the current 2020 election cycle, the group thought beyond the current two-party system. A four party system was generated along with the name and leader of each party, position of each party on the political spectrum, general platform and ideologies, and the predicted house seats of each party based on polling, were determined. Based on this information, a graphic was designed to reflect the new multi-party system. The designed graphic, displayed below, consists of four political parties on a scale of most conservative to most liberal. A unique animal symbol was chosen to represent each party. Three specific policy proposals that each party would campaign for-assuming they were all campaigning in the current cycle-were also determined and explained. The analysis following the graphic explains the reasons behind the choices the group made for the parties/leaders, vote share, symbols, and policy proposals. In accordance with the course’s objective of studying elections and political systems in a broader context, the project displayed below forced the group to think beyond the conventional two-party American system and apply features of the political systems of other nations studied in the course. Analysis The parties selected by the group include the People’s Party, the Moderate Party, the Liberal Party, and the Social Democratic Party. Each party was assigned a marine animal as their symbol. The People’s Party and Liberal Party were given the largest animals because they represent the largest percentage of the vote. The seahorse was assigned to the Social Democratic Party because seahorses do not have strict gender roles, exemplified by the fact that the males give birth. Seahorses oppose traditional social structures, similar to the beliefs of the Social Democrats. Lastly, the dolphin was assigned to the Moderate Party because a dolphin is a large, yet harmless mammal. The Moderate Party contains a significant number of voters, yet is not extremely active, as members typically end up voting Democrat or Republican. The party leaders were based on the presidential candidates running for each party and popular representatives from Congress. Donald Trump and Joe Biden were obvious choices, as they are the major party candidates in the 2020 presidential election. Mitt Romney was selected as the leader of the Moderate Party; his views have shifted from the right to the middle in recent years and his influence in the Senate is growing rapidly. Finally, the group chose Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as the leader of the Social Democratic Party. The group made this choice over Bernie Sanders due to her growing popularity and future potential as a politician. It is highly unlikely, due both to his age and previous failed attempts, that Sanders will run for the presidency again. The vote share was determined by viewing polls from the final significant primaries prior to major dropouts. The group also referenced data from predictions of the 2020 House of Representatives election. For the general platforms and specific policies, data revealing repeated trends with associated parties was integrated with specific policies and issues promoted by the designated leaders of each party. The People’s Party’s general platform and policies were determined to be nativist, nationalist, protectionist, fiscally conservative, and small government. When describing three specific policies of the party, the group focused more on Trump’s individual goals and his agenda. While Trump has a firm stance on his policies in a variety of areas, the group chose to focus on the economy, health care, and foreign policy. In regards to the economy, Trump wants to lower individual and corporate taxes and end trade deficits while eliminating Obamacare, reducing drug prices, and reforming Medicaid. Trump’s foreign policy strategy is to challenge international allies and embrace adversaries-for example, US and Russia relations. For the Liberal Party, the group chose the same major policy areas to reveal the differences between the Democrats and Republicans. The general platform of the Liberal Party is socially liberal, large government, and pro-immigration reform. In the economic arena, Biden wants to raise the federal minimum wage and ensure the protection of US goods. In direct opposition to Trump’s healthcare plan, Biden wants to build upon Obamacare, allow the importation of drugs from foreign nations, and lower the Medicare age from 65 to 60. Biden has voiced his desire to undo Trump’s foreign policy initiatives if he is elected. For example, he wants to reestablish a nuclear ​ ​ deal with Iran, repair US relations with NATO, and bring home US troops from Afghanistan. Since the Moderate Party is the middle ground between the People’s Party and the Liberal Party, the group again decided to choose the same policy issues. This was done in order to evaluate their stances and reveal the similarities and differences. In general, the Moderate Party is fiscally conservative, socially neutral, and supports small government. They support the fair regulation of both large and small companies. In terms of healthcare, they support both public and private options. They support the US’s engagement with foreign nations, but also value the importance of taking care of our needs at home. As evidenced by their specific policies, they indeed are a middle ground between Democrats and Republicans. In regards to the Social Democratic Party, the group chose slightly different policy issues since the party is more issue based. In general, the Social Democratic Party’s platform is socially liberal, supports a large government, is pro-immigration, climate conscious, and supports wealth redistribution. The group focused on the issues Cortez values as integral to her position as a politician. Cortez supports an education reform that includes the protection of public schools from budget cuts, ​ ​ enhanced curriculums, cancelation of all student debt, and free public tuition at universities. Cortez is also a huge proponent for Medicare for All and a Green New Deal. The Social Democrats value specific issues as the core of their platform, which varies from the other three parties. Conclusion Overall, the group learned a lot about the political landscape in the United States through this activity. One major takeaway is the polarization of politics in the United States. It became evident, through the research into the vote share and polling, that the majority of voters choose extreme candidates. The group believes that an extreme overhaul of Congress would have beneficial effects without changing the current system so much that it would be unrecognizable. Even though policies would likely be made and implemented in the same way as a parliamentary system, candidates would not change their platforms so the system would be representative of true American desires and beliefs. The group also learned during the course, though many countries modeled their political systems around the United States’, these countries have less political turmoil and a more effective multi-party political system. This is because a multi-party system allows for countries to have more representation in their political system. In American politics, many decisions fall along party lines or are unable to be made because of polarization. Through the analysis of political landscapes in countries around the world, it became evident that a parliamentary system would very likely be more effective. Overall, the group found this project and this course very effective and feels more prepared to participate in and advocate for change in our current election system.

  • Republican Strategy and Winning and Losing Voters
    Unintended Consequences: Republican Strategy and Winning and Losing Voters Rebekah E. Liscio Department of Political Science Maxwell School, Syracuse University And Jeffrey M. Stonecash Department of Political Science Maxwell School, Syracuse University Prepared for the 2009 State of the Parties Conference, the University of Akron, October 1 “McCain’s losing to Obama among college graduates and voters who have attended some college underscores how much the GOP franchise is in trouble. My hunch is that the Republican Party’s focus on social, cultural, and religious issues – most notably, fights over embryonic stem-cell research and Terri Schiavo – cost its candidates dearly among upscale voters.”1 “Suggestions that we abandon social conservatism, including our pro-life agenda, should be ignored. These values are often more popular than the GOP itself.”2 The struggle of the Republican Party in the late 1900s to become the majority party was lengthy, but by 2000 it was finally successful. In the 1994 elections Republicans won control of the House of Representatives for the first time since 1952. In the 1990s the percentage of Americans identifying as Republican twice surpassed the Democratic percentage, a rare occurrence in the last 50 years. In 2000 George W. Bush won the presidency and identification with the Republican Party once again equaled that for Democrats (Pew Research Center, 2008). Following 9/11 President George W. Bush had remarkably high approval ratings (Jacobson, 2006) and in the 2002 elections Republicans increased their number of seats in the House. They also held the Senate (Jeffers?) George Bush won re-election in 2004.

  • Vachudova + Zilovic APSA Paper CWG September 2015
    Party Positions, State Capture and EU Enlargement in the Western Balkans Milada Anna Vachudova University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Marko Zilovic George Washington University Paper prepared for the Annual Meeting of American Political Science Association, San Francisco, September 2015. The study of EU conditionality has focused on how the governments of candidate states have changed domestic policies, laws and institutions in order to qualify for EU membership. However, political parties are arguably the most important and most proximate source of domestic policy change – and thus of compliance or noncompliance with EU requirements. Scholars have shown that ruling political parties rarely comply with the EU’s external requirements if the costs of compliance are too high and threaten to undermine the domestic sources of their political power. After twenty-five years of observing post-communist party systems, we also know that extremist and nationalist parties rarely fade away. Consequently, it is important to understand how parties construct and change their agendas, and how these agendas are translated into government policies if they win power. EU enlargement, meanwhile, has been under the spotlight: It has been called the most successful democracy promotion program ever implemented by an international actor. Yet it has also been held liable for weak rule of law in new EU members, and lately for the dismantling of liberal democracy by the Hungarian and also Polish governments. It is therefore also important to understand how and under what conditions the key instrument of EU leverage – using conditionality to moderate parties and shape government policies – has been successful.

  • Framework Agreement Between the Swedish Social Democratic Party, the Moderate Party, the Swedish Green Party, the Centre Party and the Christian Democrats
    Framework agreement between the Swedish Social Democratic Party, the Moderate Party, the Swedish Green Party, the Centre Party and the Christian Democrats Pillars Sweden’s energy policy should build on the same three pillars as energy cooperation in the EU. The policy therefore aims to combine: • ecological sustainability • competitiveness • security of supply Sweden must have a robust electricity network with high security of supply and low environmental impact, and offer electricity at competitive prices. This creates a long- term perspective and clarity for actors in the market and helps generate new jobs and investment in Sweden. The energy policy is based on the fact that Sweden is closely linked to its neighbours in northern Europe, and aims to find joint solutions to challenges in the common electricity market. Targets By 2045, Sweden is to have no net emissions of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere and should thereafter achieve negative emissions. The target by 2040 is 100 per cent renewable electricity production. This is a target, not a deadline for banning nuclear power, nor does mean closing nuclear power plants through political decisions. An energy-efficiency target for the period 2020 to 2030 will be produced and adopted no later than 2017. Conditions on the Swedish electricity market Better conditions are needed for investments in renewable energy, energy technologies and energy efficiency. Development of the energy system should be based on a variety of large- and small-scale renewable production that is tailored to local and industrial needs. One major challenge is converting energy policy from focusing almost exclusively on the amount of energy delivered (TWh) to also ensuring sufficient output (MW).

  • Coalition Formation and the Regime Divide in Central Europe
    Program on Central & Eastern Europe Working Paper Series #52, j\Tovember 1999 Coalition Formation and the Regime Divide in Central Europe Anna Grzymala-Busse· Weatherhead Center for International Affairs Harvard University Cambridge, lvlA 02138 Abstract The study examines the formation of coalitions in East Central Europe after the democratic transi­ tions of 1989. Existing explanations of coalition formations, which focus on either office-seeking and minimum wmning considerations, or on policy-seeking and spatial ideological convergence. However, they fail to account for the coalition patterns in the new democracies of East Central Europe. Instead, these parties' flrst goal is to develop clear and consistent reputations. To that end, they will form coalitions exclusively within the two camps of the regime divide: that is, amongst par­ ties stemming from the former communist parties, and those with roots in the former opposition to the communist regimes. The two corollaries are that defectors are punished at unusually high rates, and the communist party successors seek, rather than are sought for, coalitions. This model explains 85% of the coalitions that formed in the region after 1989. The study then examines the communist successor parties, and how their efforts illustrate these dynamics . • I would like to thank Grzegorz Ekiert, Gary King, Kenneth Shepsle, Michael Tomz, and the participants ofthe Faculty Workshop at Yale University for their helpful comments. 2 I. Introduction The patterns of coalition fonnation in East Central Europe are as diverse as they are puzzling. Since the ability to fonn stable governing coalitions is a basic precondition of effective democratic governance in multi-party parliamentary systems, several explanations have emerged of how political parties fonn such coalitions.

Levy, Chair Professor Jason Wittenberg Professor Jacob Citrin Professor Katerina Linos Spring 2015 The Mainstream Right, the Far Right, and Coalition Formation in Western Europe Copyright 2015 by Kimberly Ann Twist Abstract The Mainstream Right, the Far Right, and Coalition Formation in Western Europe by Kimberly Ann Twist Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science University of California, Berkeley Professor Jonah D. Levy, Chair As long as far-right parties { known chiefly for their vehement opposition to immigration { have competed in contemporary Western Europe, scholars and observers have been concerned about these parties' implications for liberal democracy. Many originally believed that far- right parties would fade away due to a lack of voter support and their isolation by mainstream parties. Since 1994, however, far-right parties have been included in 17 governing coalitions across Western Europe. What explains the switch from exclusion to inclusion in Europe, and what drives mainstream-right parties' decisions to include or exclude the far right from coalitions today? My argument is centered on the cost of far-right exclusion, in terms of both office and policy goals for the mainstream right. I argue, first, that the major mainstream parties of Western Europe initially maintained the exclusion of the far right because it was relatively costless: They could govern and achieve policy goals without the far right.

    MACEDONIA UPDATE: Challenges and Choices for the New Government ICG Balkans Report N°60 Skopje-Brussels, 29 March 1999 Foreword This latest ICG report on Macedonia was written during March, as the new humanitarian catastrophe in neighbouring Kosovo unfolded and reached a new scale. Because of the recent events in Kosovo and the region at large, parts of this report have been overtaken by new developments. In particular, this concerns issues relating to the amount of aid reaching Macedonia, actions taken to alleviate the refugee situation in Macedonia and, most importantly, the Government’s ability to deal with the increasing number of refugees. Indeed, events in the last few days may well have reached a point beyond the Government’s capacity to respond. On the whole however, the analysis and conclusions of this report are still valid and still merit consideration despite the fact that local and international attention is now focusing on developments in Kosovo and their effect on neighbouring countries.
