Inhaltsangabe:

A concise and provocative introduction to state legislative politics, State Legislatures Today is designed as a supplement for state and local government courses and upper level courses on legislative politics. The book examines state legislatures and state lawmakers, putting them in historical context, showing how they have evolved over the years, and differentiating them from Congress. It covers state legislative elections (including the impact of redistricting, candidate recruitment, etc.), the changing job description of state legislators, legislatures as organizations, the process by which legislation gets produced, and the influences upon legislators.

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren: Peverill Squire holds the Hicks and Martha Griffiths Chair in American Political Institutions at the University of Missouri. Gary Moncrief is University Foundation Professor of Political Science at Boise State University.
