Building a New American State

Více o knize

Focusing on the evolution of governmental power in America, the book explores the intricate negotiations among courts, political parties, the presidency, Congress, and states during the early twentieth century. Stephen Skowronek contends that the emergence of new institutional frameworks is not a mere reaction to changing circumstances but results from deliberate political and institutional conflicts shaped by existing governance structures. As a comprehensive historical analysis, it serves as a valuable resource for public administration studies.
