Abstract:
|
Since 1945, American foreign economic policy has been oriented toward engagement with the international system. Given the changes in world politics and economics as well as American domestic politics over the past twenty years, many scholars have wondered whether American foreign economic policy might change. What groups have supported this internationalist policy since the late 1970s, and has this coalition changed over this period? We examine legislative voting in the US House of Representatives from the 96th to the 108th Congress (1979-2004) on trade and aid issues. We ask whether a stable, bipartisan coalition has persisted supporting trade and aid, what groups are represented by this coalition, and whether these coalitions are similar in the two areas. We show that these two coalitions differ in some important ways. Most interestingly, labor and liberal Democrats remain part of the coalition supporting aid, while they no longer do on trade. |
