Watergate, Iran-Contra, Lewinsky, Enron, Bridgegate: according to
the popular media, executive scandals are ubiquitous. Although
individual scandals persist in the public memory and as the subject
of academic study, how do we understand the impacts of executive
indiscretion or malfeasance as a whole? What effect, if any, do
scandals have on political polarization, governance, and, most
importantly, democratic accountability? Recognizing the important
and enduring role of scandals in American government, this book
proposes a common intellectual framework for understanding their
nature and political effects. Brandon Rottinghaus takes a
systematic look the dynamics of the duration of scandals, the way
they affect presidents and governors' capacity to govern, and the
strategic choices executives make in confronting scandal at both
the state and national levels. His findings reveal much about not
only scandal, but the operation of American politics.
