Recalibrating Reform: The Limits Of Political Change (Cambridge Historical Studies In American Law And Society)

This book examines a pattern of conservative resurgence following several eras of reform in American history by pointing to the phenomenon of "recalibration". It demonstrates the difficulty of achieving substantive political change in American politics, as elements of the old political order tend to find ways to survive and reassert themselves after reform. By highlighting recalibration as a regular companion to reform, the book ultimately sheds light on the barriers to, and possibilities for, sweeping change in American politics. 9781107057531 1107057531 357 Law NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=mmMZAwAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&edge=curl&source=gbs_api en
