The Breakdown of Democratic Party Organization, 1940-80
Alan J. Ware
This book examines the origins of the collapse of local political party organizations in the United States, which occurred between the early 1960s and the mid-1970s. The author draws attention to the problems faced by many local parties in America during this period, concentrating on Democratic parties in three major urban areas - New York City, Denver and the East Bay of California - and argues that this decline resulted from a complex interaction of various factors and left the parties ill-equipped to deal with candidate-centred campaigning and the social, economic and political changes during the unsettled Vietnam era. The author of "Citizens, Parties and the State", Dr Alan Ware has written a new introductory note for this paperback edition, relating his arguments to those of three other books specializing in this area.
