Book Synopsis
Politics is at its most dramatic during debates over important pieces of legislation. It is thus no stretch to refer to legislation as a living, breathing force in American politics. This title provides fresh insights into contemporary American politics and public policy.

Trade Review
"Jeffery A. Jenkins and Eric M. Patashnik have brought together a first-rate collection of scholars to address the too-often-neglected question of what happens to American public policies after the passage of legislation. The result is a compelling work that raises many deeper questions about legislation as a developmental force in American politics. Living Legislation will make an extremely important contribution to the study of American politics and public policy." (Robert C. Lieberman, Columbia University)"
