The increase in the "incumbency effect" has long dominated as a
research focus and as a framework for interpreting congressional
elections. This important new book challenges the empirical claim
that incumbents are doing better and the research paradigm that
accompanied the claim. It also offers an alternative interpretation
of House elections since the 1960s. In a style that is provocative
yet fair, learned, and transparent, Jeffrey Stonecash makes a
two-pronged argument: frameworks and methodologies suffer when they
stop being critically considered, and patterns of House elections
over the long term actually reflect party change and realignment. A
must-read for scholars and students of congressional elections.
