商品簡介
Loomis (political science, U. of Kansas) and Schiller (political science, Brown U.) concentrate on the Congress elected November 2004, including its trends toward leadership by party rather than by committee and increasing control by party leadership over campaign funding. They cover the general purposes and mission of the Congress, its history and its relationship with the other branches of US government, the changing environment of congressional politics, elections, negotiation, processes, individual enterprise, and the workings of the Congress in a partisan era. Along with case studies and specific examples the authors give a list of useful web sites to see who you voted in and what they are doing.
