The Polarized Congress

The Post-Traditional Procedure of Its Current Struggles

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book challenges the easy assumption that Congressional procedure is descending into nothing more than chaotic brutishness or eternal stalemate. Instead, it explains the transformation of the traditional model about "how a bill becomes a law" before 2000, into the new current model in which Congress acts very differently.
