  • Suspect Citizens
    i Suspect Citizens Suspect Citizens offers the most comprehensive look to date at the most common form of police– citizen interactions, the routine traffi c stop. Throughout the war on crime, police agencies have used traffi c stops to search drivers suspected of carrying contraband. From the beginning, police agencies made it clear that very large numbers of police stops would have to occur before an offi cer might interdict a signifi cant drug shipment. Unstated in that calculation was that many Americans would be subjected to police investigations so that a small number of high- level offenders might be found. The key element in this strategy, which kept it hidden from widespread public scrutiny, was that middle- class white Americans were largely exempt from its consequences. Tracking these police practices down to the offi cer level, Suspect Citizens documents the extreme rarity of drug busts and reveals sustained and troubling disparities in how racial groups are treated. Frank R. Baumgartner holds the Richard J. Richardson Distinguished Professorship at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He is a leading scholar of public policy and has written extensively on agenda- setting, policy- making, and lobbying. His work on criminal justice includes two previous books on the death penalty. Derek A. Epp is Assistant Professor of Government at the University of Texas at Austin. In The Structure of Policy Change , he explains how the capacity of governmental institutions to process information affects public policy. He also studies economic inequality with a par- ticular focus on understanding how rising inequality affects govern- ment agendas.

  • The United States House of Representatives
    THE UNITED STATES HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES “Tough but doable” was the way Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Executive Director Howard Wolfson described the Democrats' chances of taking back the House of Representative last Friday. Wolfson had a rough week. Charlie Cook, the respected non-partisan political analyst who is listened to by political reporters, and maybe more importantly, by political PACs, wrote that the math just didn’t seem to be there for the Democrats to pick up the net of six seats they’d need to regain control of the House. During the spring and summer, Cook believed that the Democrats could overcome "the math” with their strength on domestic issues. But, despite a slight edge (48% Democrat- 46% Republican) in the “generic ballot question" (“If the election were held today for Congress, for whom would you vote?”) Democrats haven’t put the issues together in a way to produce the tide it would take to move enough races to produce a Democratic House. Last summer, not only Cook, but top Democrats believed that the Enron, WorldCom and Arthur Anderson scandals, along with the plummeting stock market, had created a climate that could sweep the Democrats back. At one point they even fantasized that all 40 or so competitive races could break their way. But, by August, guns had replaced butter as the overarching national political theme, and the Democrats lost that “mo.” A driving force behind the vote on the Iraq resolution was burning desire by the Democratic leadership to get the focus back on the economy. Indeed, the day after the vote, House Democratic Leader Dick Gephardt and Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle held a high profile economic forum as a signal that the economy was the main concern of Democrats.

  • H.Doc. 108-224 Black Americans in Congress 1870-2007
    Permanent Interests: THE EXPANSION, ORGANIZATION, AND RISING INFLUENCE OF AFRICAN AMERICANS IN CONGRESS, 1971–2007 The modern era of African Americans’ nearly 140-year history in Congress began in 1971. Black Members enjoyed a tremendous surge in numbers, at least in the House, reflecting a larger historical process, as minority groups and women exercised their new freedom to participate in American society. Fully 71 percent of all African Americans who have served in Congress entered the House or Senate after 1970 (84 Representatives and two Senators).1 These startling gains derived from the legacy of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and its subsequent extensions, as well as from Supreme Court decisions requiring legislative redistricting so that black voters could be represented more equitably. Greater numbers of African-American Members provided renewed momentum for convening a formal group and, in 1971, 13 individuals created the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC).2 The CBC became a focal point for addressing issues important to blacks nationally by acting as an advocacy group for African Americans within the institution and forming a potent bloc for pushing legislative items. A growing influence, more focused and forceful than in previous generations, accompanied the organizational trend. The electoral longevity of African-American Members (boosted by districts that were drawn with black majorities), coupled with the CBC’s lobbying of House leaders and progressive On January 4, 2005, the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) swore in its first male Senator, Barack Obama of Illinois. Representatives Eddie Bernice Johnson of Texas and Donald Payne of New Jersey take the CBC oath in the foreground.

WILSON DEPARTMENT OF POLITICAL SCIENCE ATLANTA, GEORGIA MAY 1990 \~\ ~ \ 1 ABSTRACT POLITICAL SCIENCE WILSON, ZAPHON R. B.A. APPALACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY, 1976 M.A. APPALACHIAN STATE UNIVERSITY, 1978 BLACK POLITICS IN NORTH CAROLINA: A CASE STUDY OF THE SECOND CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT Adviser: Dr. William H. Boone Dissertation dated May, 1990 An important characteristic of contemporary research on black political participation in the United States has been its emphasis on black electoral behavior. Few studies, however, have examined in detail the impacts of political structure on black electoral behavior or the influences of the Good Government Movement, known as Progressive Reform, in the south on black politics. This study examines black politics in the Second Congressional District in North Carolina. The purpose of the study is to examine how black political activity is influenced by government structure on the local, state and congressional levels. Case studies were conducted of two congressional campaigns in 1982 and 1984, respectively, and one state senate campaign in 1985. Each candidate was interviewed along with representatives from four black political 2 organizations in the study area. These case studies reveal several points regarding black politics in the Second Congressional District and how structure, particularly the Second Primary Run-off, effects black candidates. By the same token, race is still an important concern in elections in the study area.
