The New Politics of Public Policy

"All people want to talk about these days is the Republican 'revolution' in the process and substance of public policy. This collection of essays gives us a framework for assessing the novelty of the 'revolution' and, more importantly, for grounding today's policy developments in the changes in American politics and political philosophy over the past two decades." -- Richard A. Brody, Stanford University. "An ambitious, provocative book that develops a powerful argument explaining how and why policy innovation is more characteristic of the American system than gridlock." -- Thomas E. Mann, The Brookings Institution. "In this book many of the most distinguished analysts of American public policies and processes offer fresh, challenging, and often illuminating commentaries." -- Austin Ranney, University of California, Berkeley
