- Synopsis
- In Thinking about Congress, Lawrence Dodd reminds us that Congress seemed equally intransigent at times in the past, yet change and rejuvenation came. Reading his classic essays, one sees Congress move from Committee Government in mid-twentieth century to Liberal Democratic reforms in the 1970s to the 1994 Republican Revolution to Party Government today. Dodd crafts a theory of congressional cycles that explains why Congress evolves. Thinking about Congress holds out hope for the future while illuminating both the process and object of inquiry.
