Download or read book The Legislative Committee Game written by Wayne L. Francis and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Francis examines the legislative committee "game" in the United States, arguing that within the constitutional context rational behavior leads to decentralized agenda setting. The committee system represents the lynchpin in this decentralization, and Francis charts the flow of decisionmaking from individuals in subcommittees to full committees to the entire legislature. Drawing on the database of all 50 state legislatures, a survey of over 2000 legislators, and an intensive study of the state legislatures of Indiana and Missouri, he describes how the leadership sets decentralizing events in motion at the beginning of each session by accomodating requests for committee assignments and appointments; and shows how the decentralized decision making produces a higher bill passage rate.

Download or read book Decision Making in Committees written by Nicola Friederike Maaser and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-01-22 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Political and economic institutions are typically governed by committees that face the challenge to reconcile the preferences of their members. How should decision rules be designed to generate fair and sustainable agreements, for example if committee members represent groups of different sizes? This book uses game-theoretic concepts and models to address the issue of political decision-making processes. In addition to providing a survey on basic game-theoretic tools in the analysis of political decisions, the author looks at specific issues such as two-tiered voting systems or the influence of lobbyists on legislative committees, and shows how the models can be applied to real-world contexts such as the EU decision-making institutions.

Download or read book Turf Wars written by David C. King and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1997-09-02 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most bills in American legislatures, the issue of turf—or which committee has jurisdiction over a bill—can make all the difference. Turf governs the flow and fate of all legislation. In this innovative study, David C. King explains how jurisdictional areas for committees are created and changed in Congress. Political scientists have long maintained that jurisdictions are relatively static, changing only at times of dramatic reforms. Not so, says King. Combining quantitative evidence with interviews and case studies, he shows how on-going turf wars make jurisdictions fluid. According to King, jurisdictional change stems both from legislators seeking electoral advantage and from nonpartisan House parliamentarians referring ambiguous bills to committees with the expertise to handle the issues. King brilliantly dissects the politics of turf grabbing and at the same time shows how parliamentarians have become institutional guardians of the legislative process. Original and insightful, Turf Wars will be valuable to those interested in congressional studies and American politics more generally.
