Quantitative And Qualitative Methods

In this study, a consistent mix of quantitative and qualitative methods is applied to the study of the interest group systems of twelve southern states. It is found that recent transformations of southern life and politics have affected surface aspects of southern interest group systems, such as the range of interests represented and the style of representation, but have not altered the fundamental dominance of the policy process by traditional economic and institutional interests that enjoy advantages in the resources of influence. Existing theories of an inverse relationship between interest group power and party development, socioeconomic development, and government professionalization, respectively, are thus thrown into question.
