Campaign finance, observe Farrar-Myers (political science, U. of Texas at Arlington) and Dwyre (political science, California State U. at Chico), is a policy area that serves as a case for understanding the role of competing and conflicting core values in driving American politics. This observation serves as the underlying theoretical framework for their analysis of the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002 as it wound through the entire policy process, including congressional legislation, presidential approval and implementation through the Federal Election Commission, and judicial interpretation in the Supreme Court. They also examine how candidates, parties, interest groups, corporations, unions, and wealthy individuals responded to the BCRA during the 2004 and 2006 elections.
