Clem Brooks

I am Professor of Sociology at Indiana University, Bloomington. My interests are voting behavior, public opinion, and social policy. With Jeff Manza, I am the author of Why Welfare States Persist (University of Chicago Press, 2007), and Social Cleavages and Political Change (Oxford University Press, 1999). With support from the Russell Sage Foundation, Manza and I are working on a project entitled “Inequality and American Social Policy Attitudes.”
