Book excerpt: The Political State of New Jersey, sponsored by the Eagleton Institute of Politics of Rutgers University, is a comprehensive analysis of contemporary New Jersey politics. The contributors to this volume are both academic specialists and experienced governmental figures. They have provided citizens of the state of New Jersey with an invaluable guide to political life in New Jersey. Gerald M. Pomper is Professor of Political Science at Rutgers University and the Eagleton Institute of Politics. He is a contributor to the two editions of Politics in New Jersey, author of Voters, Elections, and Parties, and coauthor of The Election of 1984. A major theme of this book is the emergence of the state government as a significant factor in New Jersey political life. Only recently has the state, as opposed to local or private institutions, become a dominant influence. This trend is evident in the political culture and political parties, the legislature, the governor's office and the courts, the state's finances, and in the agencies for education, environmental protection, and economic development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frank Hague served as the mayor of Jersey City for much of the early twentieth century. While some believed him a thief, others viewed him as a modern-day Robin Hood. He could put food on your table or triple your taxes, give you a job or end your career. It was with this same ease and power that he could make you a federal judge, a congressman or even a United States senator. He has been remembered including through a character on the popular TV drama "Boardwalk Empire" as one of the most corrupt politicians of the century. But in this biography, Leonard Vernon reexamines Hague's deeds, prompting a new understanding of his life and the memory of politicians of the era.
