Every four years, The State of the Parties brings readers up to date on political party action in election years and in-between. The fourth edition of this essential party primer includes:

—The first report on the midterm elections of 2002
—A whole new part on national party finances
—Twelve new chapters covering topics ranging from party web sites, to political consultants, to state-level party activity
—Thoroughly revised anchor chapters including a recast argument, by Theodore J. Lowi, for a more responsible three party system

The growing sophistication of party politics is the theme of this new edition, a theme sure to be played out in the elections of 2004.

Review:
This book is intended for party scholars and a general audience. It should be read by both, and it belongs on the bookshelf of anyone interested in contemporary U.S. politics. (Perspectives On Political Science)

To keep up with American democracy, you must still keep up with the political parties. This anthology will help both undergraduates and graduate students understand the changing dynamics of the engines of political change—the parties. From Perot to party leadership, from campaign finance to national party committees, it's all here in a well-edited volume. (Larry J. Sabato)
