Book Roll Call

    Book Details:
  • Author : Bobby Kipper
  • Publisher : Morgan James Publishing
  • Release : 2021
  • ISBN : 1631953613
  • Pages : 114 pages

Download or read book Roll Call written by Bobby Kipper and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2021 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by two seasoned law enforcement professionals, Bobby Kipper and Joe St. John, Roll Call is a Christian Spiritual Guide for other law enforcement professionals. Police work is a stressful and often dangerous job that puts a burden on the individual that most people will never understand. It also forces the police officer to see the world in a very real light and that light is not always positive. Kipper and St. John understand the challenges to staying spiritual in an often-harsh world. It is easy to lose focus on a loving and caring God in the midst of turmoil. It is easy to lose hope when a person sees so much hopelessness. Roll Call is as an easy-to-carry book that an officer can read in these troubling times. During a break from all the chaos, the officer can read a quick chapter and refocus on a loving God and the peace of Jesus. Roll Call is a “no-nonsense” book that places the Christian Faith in the forefront of the officers’ lives. In these drastic times of today and with the problems facing law enforcement, there is no better time for the faith community to have a police “Roll Call.”

Book Roll Call Rebels

    Book Details:
  • Author : Justin H. Kirkland
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2018-12-20
  • ISBN : 1108759254
  • Pages : 164 pages

Download or read book Roll Call Rebels written by Justin H. Kirkland and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-12-20 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars of legislative politics often note the many differences between the British House of Commons and the United States House of Representatives. These include differences in party strength, members' partisan loyalty on votes, and general institutional structure. Because of these differences, scholars have rarely compared these chambers directly. This Element aims to do precisely that. The authors point out the many similar motivations of members in both chambers, and leverage these similar motivations to theorize that member ideology, as well as how party agenda interact to produce party disloyalty. Using data on legislative voting following changes in agenda control, the authors demonstrate that ideological extremists in both the US and UK use party disloyalty to connect with ideologically extreme constituents. The similarities in patterns across these chambers suggest that legislative scholars have much to gain by considering the commonalities across American and British politics, and in general, by thinking more frequently about US legislative politics in a comparative context.

Book Ideology and Congress

Download or read book Ideology and Congress written by Howard Rosenthal and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-04 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ideology and Congress, authors Poole and Rosenthal have analyzed over 13 million individual roll call votes spanning the two centuries since Congress began recording votes in 1789. By tracing the voting patterns of Congress throughout the country's history, the authors find that, despite a wide array of issues facing legislators, over 81 percent of their voting decisions can be attributed to a consistent ideological position ranging from ultraconservatism to ultraliberalism. In their classic 1997 volume, Congress: A Political Economic History of Roll Call Voting, roll call voting became the framework for a novel interpretation of important episodes in American political and economic history. Congress demonstrated that roll call voting has a very simple structure and that, for most of American history, roll call voting patterns have maintained a core stability based on two great issues: the extent of government regulation of, and intervention in, the economy; and race. In this new, paperback volume, the authors include nineteen years of additional data, bringing in the period from 1986 through 2004.

Book Revolving Door Lobbying

Download or read book Revolving Door Lobbying written by Timothy LaPira and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2017-06-23 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades Washington has seen an alarming rise in the number of "revolving door lobbyists"—politicians and officials cashing in on their government experience to become influence peddlers on K Street. These lobbyists, popular wisdom suggests, sell access to the highest bidder. Revolving Door Lobbying tells a different, more nuanced story. As an insider interviewed in the book observes, where the general public has the "impression that lobbyists actually get things done, I would say 90 percent of what lobbyists do is prevent harm to their client from the government." Drawing on extensive new data on lobbyists’ biographies and interviews with dozens of experts, authors Timothy M. LaPira and Herschel F. Thomas establish the facts of the revolving door phenomenon—facts that suggest that, contrary to widespread assumptions about insider access, special interests hire these lobbyists as political insurance against an increasingly dysfunctional, unpredictable government. With their insider experience, revolving door lobbyists offer insight into the political process, irrespective of their connections to current policymakers. What they provide to their clients is useful and marketable political risk-reduction. Exploring this claim, LaPira and Thomas present a systematic analysis of who revolving door lobbyists are, how they differ from other lobbyists, what interests they represent, and how they seek to influence public policy. The first book to marshal comprehensive evidence of revolving door lobbying, LaPira and Thomas revise the notion that lobbyists are inherently and institutionally corrupt. Rather, the authors draw a complex and sobering picture of the revolving door as a consequence of the eroding capacity of government to solve the public’s problems.
