The New Campaign Finance Sourcebook has been integrated with the award-winning and frequently visited Brookings website to provide a timely, interactive tool for policymakers, journalists, and scholars. Four of the country's leading experts on campaign finance reform have contributed original essays on important facets of finance law and administration. The essays are accompanied by a list of corresponding documents available on the website. The book offers a thorough overview and analysis of this highly controversial issue, including the history of campaign finance regulation and the current state of the law, current practices and trends in the flow of money, the constitutional debate, the use of political party money, issue advocacy, public financing of presidential elections, implementing and enforcing campaign finance laws, and campaigning on the internet. The authors conclude with a broad overview of alternative approaches to reform. The related website (www.brookings.edu/campaignfinance) features sidebars that correspond to the book's chapters as well as associated documents. The site is frequently updated with recent developments in campaign finance regulation and analyses of current court cases and administrative decisions. There are also links to advisory opinions from the Federal Elections Commission, nonprofit organizations that study reform, and related publications-.

In the wake of yet another failed effort to enact campaign finance reform during the 1998 legislative session, the new Congress will once again wrestle with an issue that the public continues to rank as a high priority. This volume will provide journalists, policymakers, and other citizens concerned about the issue with the most up to date and essential facts about campaign finance reform, as well as clear explanations of key concepts and areas of dispute, just as the next installment of the seemingly perpetual debate is unfolding. In addition to presenting the latest figures from the 1998 elections, the volume, which is part of The Century Foundation's Beyond the Basics series, will analyze such important issues as: the costs of campaigning, sources of funding, party financing and "soft money," issue advocacy, the public financing system for presidential campaigns, and options for reform. In addition, the volume includes an explanation of the Buckley v. Valeo Supreme Court decision and its impact on efforts to change campaign finance laws.
