The incorporation of the presidential, senatorial, and House factions in the analysis of House rule making marks an important departure from previous theories, which analyze the House as an institution that makes laws in isolation. This book argues that, by constitutional design, the success of the House in passing legislation is highly contingent on the actions of the Senate and the president; and therefore, also by constitutional design, House members must anticipate such actions when they design their rules. An examination of major rule changes from 1879 to 2013 finds that changes in the preferences of constitutional actors outside the House, as well as the political alignment of these political actors vis-a-vis House factions, are crucial for predicting the timing and directionality of rule changes"-- $c Provided by publisher. 610 10 $a United States. $b House. $b House. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79107874 650 0 $a Legislation $z United States. 650 0 $a Separation of powers $z United States. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008111528 610 10 $a United States. $b House $b House $x Rules and practice. 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE $x General. $x General. $2 bisacsh 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217021758.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6FE6D46C033A11E8972C924897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
