About

In order to study the formation and impact of interest group networks, we created the Amicus Curiae Networks Project, a database of all organized interests (e.g., organizations, associations and corporations) that have signed onto amicus curiae briefs on Supreme Court merits cases over the history of the Court. This list of cosignatories makes it possible to trace the purposive and coordinated behavior of a comprehensive collection of interests.

Support

The Project is made possible by support from the National Science Foundation's Social and Economic Sciences Division under the Directorate for Social, Behavioral & Economic Sciences:
