Download or read book American Federalism written by Thomas R. Dye and published by Lexington, Mass. : Lexington Books. This book was released on 1990 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author sketches a theory of relations among the nation's federal, state, and local governments. He begins with the assertion that all governments, even democratic governments, are dangerous and suggests a solution to the potential abuse of power by government as competitive federalism: the encouragement of rivalry among state and local governments to offer citizen-taxpayers the best array of public services at the lowest costs. If citizens feel that their taxes are too high or that the level of government benefits is too low, they can vote with their feet and move to other state or local governments where the balance between taxes and services is more to their liking. The more that government officials must confront this ultimate test of their decisions, the author concludes, the more they will pursue policies that match the public will.

Book excerpt: All Politics is Local. I suggest that what happens at the local government level is more important than what happens at the state and federal levels. Residents are more concerned about the impact of local development on issues like traffic, parking, neighborhoods, schools, and policies that will improve their quality of life. Readers of this book will see another side to serving in local government. This book on local politics is unique in that it goes beyond discussing the simple structure of local government.

Readers of this book will see another side to serving in local government. This book on local politics is unique in that it goes beyond discussing the simple structure of local government. It discusses the role of council appointees, how a city is organized, how to run a successful campaign, how to succeed in working with city staff and council colleagues, how to deal with special interest groups, the basics of local budgeting, and figuring out how to implement policies in an efficient and equitable way. In each of these topics, I point out the economic way of thinking and offer political advice about how to make good decisions and why it will lead to better outcomes.
