The Talk of the Party

- Political Labels, Symbolic Capital, and American Life

Über The Talk of the Party

How did "liberal" become a dirty word in American politics? How did "compassionate conservative" become a viable campaign theme? When did the "independent voter" become the most sought-after prize in modern campaigns? And why haven''t "third-party candidates" enjoyed similar acclaim? The Talk of the Party listens to how the language of partisanshipΓÇöincluding words like Democrat, Republican, party, liberal, conservative, and independentΓÇöhas been used over the past fifty years and how it has created or limited political opportunities. Listening to the talk of the party can teach valuable lessons about campaigns, opportunities for public life, and the future of these American institutions.
