商品簡介
Farmer, director of committee staff at the Oklahoma House of Representatives, assembles academics in political science and professionals in legislative management to offer insight into the legislative process in specific states. Contributors compare states with term limits to similar states without term limits, and illuminate the individual idiosyncrasies that enhance or dilute the effects of term limits in a state. They take the position that on the whole, the legislature as an institution has been weakened by term limits. The audience for the book includes students and scholars of state politics and the legislative process. The editor is a fellow at the Ray C. Bliss Institute of Applied Politics at the University of Akron. Annotation c2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
