Book SynopsisThrough 13 years of intensive research and 460 interviews, this study assesses changes since Michigan's implementation of term limits in 1993 and explores their implications. Paying special attention to term limits' institutional effects, the authors also consider legislative representation, political accountability, and the role of the bureaucracy and interest groups in state legislatures.Trade ReviewThe interview data analyzed in this book are incredibly rich and are used to examine a wide range of legislator and institutional outcomes. This work will be of interest to scholars who study legislatures and term limits and will be useful for classes in Michigan politics or even for practitioners in the state."" - Christopher Witko, University of South Carolina
