Examines the cue selection process, and assumes that choosing a cue-source is functional and designed to help legislators accomplish their goals. Argues that intense policy preferences predispose legislators to seek cues from policy specialists, while those who believe that an issue is salient to their district will be more likely to seek cues from sources who can provide information about the district's preferences.

AbstractKorean political parties have been organizationally unstable for decades, even after 1987 when a democratic transition from authoritarian military-based politics was achieved. Many studies have argued that the instability has been caused by the Confucian culture of Korean politics. This paper suggests a different view of the political phenomenon: Korean party instability has been due to the 'cue-chasing behaviors' of self-interested politicians, rather than Confucian morality. This study examines the proposition with a historical exploration of Korean political parties between 1987 and 2012.
