A couple years ago, Steve Smith and I were idly discussing the origins of committee exclusivity, which we were pretty sure was an invention of the LRA. Investigating that question turned into a project and real story that spanned over a century and archives across the country

Great to see this paper out! In it we document the rise of the culture wars as a dominant divide in American politics. In particular, we find that it was the *state* parties that first polarized on abortion, well before national parties acted on the issue.
