Federal Election Commission: Policy, Politics, and Administration

By Maurice C. Sheppard

The Federal Election Commission: Politics, Policy, and Administration is an engaging and accessible analysis of the nature and impact of the contextual relationship between the Federal Election Commission (FEC) and legislative, executive, and judicial institutions of government. This work offers a historical and theoretical explanation of why campaign finance regulation and its administration fails to satisfy politicians, pundits, and the public and might ultimately threaten democratic government. With detailed research, The Federal Election Commission addresses the following issues relating to FEC administration and enforcement of campaign finance policies: democratic theory and policymaking; electoral knowledge and policy preferences; and organization theory and administrative arrangements. Those interested in campaign finance, public administration, public policy, democratic theory, and organization theory will find this book helpful.
