Restoration
Will argues that Congress's ability to legislate effectively is being undermined by politicians using it a vehicle for seeking re-election. Term limits, he says, would work to reverse the trend toward short-term popularity seeking and re-establish Congress as a proper deliberative chamber. USA is in the midst of a deep-seated governmental crisis. Congress's inability to formulate coherent policies and the low esteem in which it is consequently he…
Party Reform, Party Atrophy, and Constitutional Change
One measure of a revolution is the volume of commentary concerning causes and consequences that it generates. By that measure alone, the rapid changes since 1968 in the process of nominating candidates for President and the associated alterations in the party system merit being called revolutionary. Participants in the reform movement, along with scholars and journalists, have produced a substantial literature on what has happened, why it has hap…

Disillusion and Regeneration
A discipline, at least to the initiated, is known more by the questions it asks than by the answers that it provides. For questions indicate goals or aspirations that answers may not reach. At certain periods, however, a field of knowledge may be more conspicuously characterized by the controversies that occur among those who work in it. When these take the form of debates over the adequacy of particular answers, as determined by agreed, even tho…

Grand Inquest
The State Delegations and the Structure of Party Voting in the United States House of Representatives
Recent controversies over the degree of responsibility displayed by American parties have underscored at least one feature of voting in the Congress. Whatever the merits of the contending interpretations and demands, the facts adduced on both sides suggest relatively fluid, unstructured voting patterns, especially in the House of Representatives. Although the party label is clearly the single most reliable indicator of congressional voting behavi…

The Governmental Process
An analysis of the formation and activities of representative interest groups particularly in relation to the formal institutions of government
Political Behavior and International Tensions
Organized efforts to deal with the problem of war through channels other than those of traditional diplomacy seem peculiarly subject to frustration. Perhaps this is inevitable. Certainly it is common. The current disappointment with the achievements of UNESCO, which Professor Dunn examines in the opening pages of his book, is only the most recent and most obvious instance of the dismay which sometimes follows upon the discovery that the star to w…
