Norman J. Ornstein Volgorde van de boeken

Traces the development of congressional dysfunction over more than three decades and provides eight case studies that examine how the crisis affects our government's ability to meet major policy challenges.

Outlines recommendations for ending obstructionist tactics and barriers to compromise, suggesting specific institutional restructuring measures while calling on the public and media to work with government to correct problems.

The Broken Branch offers both a diagnosis of the cause of Congressional decline and a blueprint for change, from two experts who understand politics and revere our institutions, but believe that Congress has become deeply dysfunctional. --frompublisher description
