Summary:

This data collection is a study of politics at the grassroots level. The immediate goal of the project was to describe the contemporary situation of grassroots party activism and organization in 11 southern states. States included in this cooperative effort are Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. From surveys of county party members and chairs in 1991, extended to party national convention delegates in 1992, the data gathered focus on the party position of the activists, recruitment to political activism, incentives to party activism, history of personal political involvement, campaign activities of the activists' organizations and their members, the degree of hierarchy in the party organization, selected political, social, and economic attitudes, perceptions of the condition of the parties and party system, and social backgrounds, including an extensive focus on religion. Demographic variables include age, gender, ethnicity, occupation, education, and family income.... Cf.: http://dx.doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR06307
