Description: |
This text examines the House of Representatives during three periods of policy innovations: the Civil War, the 1890's and the New Deal. The author asserts that critical elections create conditions in the House that enable the majority party to legislate significant policy changes. |
Synopsis: |
This book argues that, despite the scholarly emphasis on 20th-century congressional history, it is necessary to study the nation's first 150 years in order to understand more fully the evolution and functioning of the modern Congress-a time when parties emerged, developed, realigned, and dissapeared; Congressional standing rules changed; the workload of Congress increased dramatically; and both houses grew greatly in size. |
