| Sommario/riassunto: | State legislators have often been in the shadow of their national counterparts, but they drive the processes of democracy. Rosenthal brings together a lifetime of research and experience on state legislative politics into one eminently readable volume. Building on earlier work with new data and recent interviews and observations, Rosenthal looks at the way representation works, American's critical view of their legislatures, the role of legislative leaders, the dynamics of executive-legislative relationships, as well as norms and ethics. |
