2 The Political Spectrum Governmental Involvement and Change IDEOLOGY Liberal Moderate Conservative Government involvement More Some involvement Less Speed of changes in government Gradual Slow to no change No Change
3 Chap. 5.1: Political Parties American political parties are election-oriented. Political party - a group of persons who seek to control government by winning elections and holding office. The two major parties in American politics are the Republican and Democratic parties.
4
5 Political Party Functions Nominate Candidates ~ Recruit, choose, and present candidates for public office. Inform; Activate Supporters ~ Campaign, define issues, and criticize other candidates. Act as Bonding Agent ~ Guarantee that their candidate is worthy of the office. Govern ~ Partisanship, or firm allegiance to a party, is the basis for governmental action Act as Watchdog ~ Out of power parties keep close watch on actions of party in power for blunders to use against them in the next election.
6 Chap 5.2 Why a Two-Party System? The Historical Basis The nation started out with two-parties, over the ratification of the Constitution. Ø Federalists Ø Anti-Federalists Two parties developed as the prime instruments of government. Ø Example - organization of Congress
7
8 One-Party Systems Types of One-Party Systems One Party Systems: where only one party is allowed. Example: Dictatorships such as Stalinist Russia; Saddam in Iraq Modified One-Party Systems: where one party regularly wins most elections Example: Republican Texas since the 1990 s Democratic California
9 Party Membership Patterns Factors that can influence party membership: Family most important Major Events Economic Status Religion Occupation Age
10 Chap 5.4: Minor Parties in the US Types of Minor Parties (leave room for examples) Ideological Parties Based on particular set of beliefs Single-issue Parties Concentration on only one public policy issue Economic Protest Parties Economic discontent; disgust with major parties Splinter Party Split away from one of the two major parties
11 Textbook page : Match the Minor Party with Examples Ideological Parties Single-Issue Parties Economic Protest Parties Splinter Parties 1. Bull Moose Progressive Party; Dixiecrats 2. Free Soil Party; Right to Life Party 3. Libertarian Party; Socialist Worker Party 4. The Greenback Party; the Populist Party
12 Minor Parties in the United States
13
14 Minor Parties Have Important Roles Spoiler Role ~ Minor party candidates can pull decisive votes away from one of the major parties candidates, especially if the minor party candidate is from a splinter party. Critic Role ~ Minor parties, especially single-issue parties, draw attention to controversial issues that the major parties would prefer to ignore. Innovator Role ~ Minor parties will draw attention to important issues and propose innovative solutions to problems. If these proposals gain popular support, they are often integrated into the platforms of the two major parties.
15 Chap 5.5: The Decentralized Nature of the Parties Both of the major parties are highly decentralized and fragmented. Why? The party out of power lacks a strong leader. The federal system distributes powers widely, in turn causing the parties to be decentralized. The nominating process pits party members against one another because only one person can chosen to be the party s presidential candidate.
16 National Party Machinery All four elements of both major parties work together loosely to achieve the party s goals. The National Convention The Congressional Campaign Committees The National Chairperson The National Committee
17 State and Local Party Machinery State and local party organization varies from State to State, but usually follow the general principles below.
18 State and Local Party Machinery State and local party organization varies from State to State, but usually follow the general principles below.
19 State and Local Party Machinery State and local party organization varies from State to State, but usually follow the general principles below.
20 The Three Components of the Party The Party Organization: Those who run and control the party machinery. The Party in the Electorate Those who always or almost always vote for party candidates. The Party in Government Those who hold office in the government.
21 The Future of Major Parties Weakened connections to political parties: For voters: More people are unwilling to label themselves as Democrats or Republicans Split-ticket voting voting for candidates of different parties for different offices at the same election
22 The Future of Major Parties continued Weakened connections to political parties: For candidate: Structural changes have increased conflict and disorganization within parties Changes in the technology of campaigning, especially television and the Internet, have made candidates more independent of the party organization The growth of single-issue organizations provides candidates with another source of financial support
