Contemporary American politics have produced levels of ideological
conflict not seen since the Civil War. Congressional voting records
especially illustrate the increasing ideological polarization
between Democrats and Republicans in the Senate. In the 95th
Senate, conservative Democrats and liberal Republicans overlapped
in the center of the political spectrum. A decade later, the degree
of ideological overlap had plummeted, and by the 109th Congress it
had all but disappeared. The result is the near-complete gridlock
the country has experienced over the last decade, resonating from
the fiscal cliff to the debt ceiling. Politics to the Extreme
brings together leading scholars and experts to examine how
ideological warfare infects and affects American political
institutions, hindering the ability on our institutions to respond
to pressing policy challenges. This incisive and approachable
analysis also identifies solutions for bridging the partisan divide
and restoring courtesy to Congress.
