For those who assume that increased regulation of political
spending is inevitable in democratic nations, recent developments
in U.S. campaign finance law appear puzzling. Is deregulation,
exemplified by the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United
v. FEC, a harbinger of things to come elsewhere or further evidence
that the United States remains an anomaly? In this volume, experts
on the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Australia, Germany,
Sweden, France, and several other European nations explore what
deregulation means in the context of political campaigns and
demonstrate how such comparisons can inform the study of campaign
finance in the U.S. Whereas the contributors do not settle on any
single theory of change in campaign finance law or any single
perspective on the relationship between changes seen in the U.S.
and those in other nations over the past decade, they do concur
that the U.S. is rapidly retreating from the types of regulations
that defined campaign finance law in most democratic nations during
the latter decades of the twentieth century. By tracing and
analyzing the recent history of regulation, the contributors shed
light on many pressing topics, including the relationship between
public opinion and campaign finance law, the role of scandals in
inspiring reform, and the changing incentives of political parties,
interest groups, and the courts.
