  • 1 Constitutional Choices: Political Parties, Groups, and Prohibition
    Constitutional Choices: Political Parties, Groups, and Prohibition Politics in the United States Aaron J. Ley, Ph.D. University of Rhode Island Department of Political Science 206 Washburn Hall Kingston, RI 02881 [email protected] 401.874.7893 Cornell W. Clayton Washington State University School of Politics, Philosophy, and Public Affairs Johnson Tower 814 Pullman, WA [email protected] Abstract: The Prohibition-Era is an exceptional period of American history spawning the only constitutional amendment ever to grant a specific police power to the federal government, as well as the first effort to repeal a constitutional amendment. Most accounts of the Eighteenth and Twenty First Amendments to the U.S. Constitution focus on the temperance movement and interest groups while largely ignoring the role played by major political parties. This is because prohibition split the electoral coalitions of both major parties and support for the amendment was thus characterized as “bipartisan” or “non-partisan” in nature. In this paper, we argue that partisan politics is an integral part of the constitutional politics of this period. The split in the parties’ political coalitions, together with the unsettled and closely divided nature of electoral politics during the transition from the third to the fourth party systems, played an important role, perhaps the key role in enactment of the Eighteenth Amendment, permitting its passage even as neither national party supported it. The Eighteenth Amendment thus is the only constitutional amendment since the founding period to be enacted without supported of one or both of the major political parties. The national political parties also played a role in enactment of the Twenty First Amendment, supporting tacitly or explicitly the repeal of prohibition.
