Today, regional parties in India win nearly as many votes as national parties. In Why Regional Parties?, Professor Adam Ziegfeld questions the conventional wisdom that regional parties in India are electorally successful because they harness popular grievances and benefit from strong regional identities. He draws on a wide range of quantitative and qualitative evidence from over eighteen months of field research to demonstrate that regional parties are, in actuality, successful because they represent expedient options for office-seeking politicians. By focusing on clientelism, coalition government, and state-level factional alignments, Ziegfeld explains why politicians in India find membership in a regional party appealing. He therefore accounts for the remarkable success of India's regional parties and, in doing so, outlines how party systems take root and evolve in democracies where patronage, vote buying, and machine politics are common.

This overview of the 2004 elections in India will play an important role in promoting an understanding of electoral politics and social change at the national and state levels. The volume is divided into two parts: Part One presents national, theoretical and comparative perspectives - on women's electoral participation, caste dynamics, religion and nationalism, as well as federalism and factionalism; Part Two offers studies on seven different states - Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Bihar, Gujarat, Meghalaya, Orissa and West Bengal. The book focuses on tribal politics at a time when the politicization of ethnic identities is being increasingly felt in India.
