Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: The concept of American political development was developed by William Chambers in 1967 on the cusp of the congressional and party reform eras where all was turned topsy-turvy. His pathbreaking work dividing American political development into three eras: nation-building (1789-1815); establishment of significant form (1828-1865); and derivative stage (1865-1967) has not been revisited even as subfield specialists have developed diverse independent historical models based on milestones in party government, congressional development, party systems realignment, presidential nomination eras and party organizations. These competing models are compared based on their ability to explain polarization, institutionalized partisan conflict, and growth of party-like genuine factions (opposed to tendencies or “in” and “out” party factional voting blocs). This research demonstrates that contemporary factions are new - party-like in their locus in durable social formations and genuine intermediation, and provides a data-driven reassessment of political development based Democratic and Republican convention delegates surveys (1984-08 (Party Elite Study), and participant-observation of the national nominating conventions conducted by the author.
