“…The empirical findings of these accounts can be reconciled, but not without substantially modifying one interpretation or the other. The legislative responsiveness identified by Caughey (2018) might have occurred if the region's "white primaries" provided sufficient opportunities for voters to place issues on the agenda, make informed choices, and hold legislators accountable (see also Grynaviski 2004). But it might also have been an artifact of the period, venue, or issues studied.…”

Recent years have seen a renewed interest in southern distinctiveness within the United States and its ramifications for the nation. This review provides an analysis of recent works and the interpretive issues they raise. I argue that collectively they have broken with the long-established image of the South in political science, the study of which was long organized around the region's anticipated convergence to the patterns of the post–New Deal North. Recent texts have instead emphasized an enduring commitment to white supremacy and a determining influence for the region in shaping national politics and institutions. I identify two broad pathways of southern influence and discuss the debates over its sources. I then discuss recent works on southern regimes and the debates these have provoked. I conclude by suggesting that overcoming the limits of recent works will ultimately undermine some of our more sweeping interpretive claims and foundational premises. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Political Science, Volume 26 is June 2023. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.

“…Features of the system of government, the electoral system, and party laws have been identified as possible factors for the emergence of factionalism (Beller and Belloni, 1978; Grynaviski, 2004; Köllner and Basedau, 2006; Morgenstern, 2001). Party laws encompass rules against party hopping which is a disincentive for faction building as is the introduction of electoral thresholds that may prevent party splits.…”

This paper is the introduction for a special issue which examines intra-party factions and factionalism in competitive party systems of Southeast Asia, looking at the cases of Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Timor-Leste, in that order and rounding up with a comparative conclusion. The study centres primarily upon one query: in competitive party systems of Southeast Asia, what accounts for the rise of factionalism in some party systems relative to others? The paper at hand frames this special issue, reviewing the literature and examining the causes, effects and forms of factionalism in general and more specifically in Southeast Asia.

“…4 Key's attempt to come to terms with the different characteristics of factions in the Deep South's Democratic Party provided an important impulse for subsequent research. Key can thus be regarded as the spiritus rector of political-science research on factionalism (Graham 1993: 141-146;Grynaviski 2004). …”

Factionalism can affect the stability and institutionalization of parties and party systems and it can impact on the efficiency and legitimacy of political parties and political systems as a whole. Nevertheless, factionalism has only received scant attention in the comparative literature on political parties. As this paper shows, there is no dearth of conceptual approaches and hypotheses which can readily be used to advance the systematic analysis of factionalism. We survey the relevant literature and offer a comprehensive analytical framework to stimulate comparatively oriented and nuanced studies of the causes, characteristics and consequences of intra-party groups.
