The dust jacket is in poor condition (tears). 9 x 6, 493 pages, 30 ounces XX [From the dust jacket flaps] "THIS PROBING INVESTIGATION of campaign finance as a form of political action in a democratic society is of special timeliness and continuing importance. Since free elections are the principal instruments of democratic government and since political campaigns cost money, the basic and enduring problem of campaign finance and its effect upon the nominating process is of utmost significance. Impressively documented, this book shows the effect of money on the outcome of elections and the significance of contributing as a form of political action and as an avenue to preferment; it analyzes the sources of campaign funds including interest groups, business, public employees, organized labor, and the underworld; and it examines the ways funds are raised and their effects on the structure of power within the parties and on the nomination of candidates. It evaluates the generally unsuccessful attempts to regulate campaign finance by federal and state laws; it describes the uses to which funds are put, examining the functions these expenditures accomplish; and it inspects proposals for altering the present system by legislative and private action. Finally, it outlines affirmative measures that might ensure greater equality among candidates and political parties in bidding for the voters' support. There are no convenient, dependable data on the sources and uses of political money; a student must forage far and wide to find materials with which to work. In consequence, any broad study of money in elections is necessarily a cooperative venture. The studies initiated in 1953 at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, which are concluded in this book, have received aid of some sort from over a thousand persons. Because money in politics is so difficult to study, the last major study on the subject appeared in 1932, and another is unlikely for twenty-five years. Since 1953 Mr. Heard, Professor of Political Science and Dean of the Graduate School in the University of North Carolina, has been studying the role of money in politics. In 1956 he was a consultant to the United States Senate Subcommittee on Privileges and Elections and had access to their files on the 1952 and 1956 elections. He has also used in this comprehensive book off-the-record interviews with over six hundred politicians throughout the nation.".
