Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book traces the development of the committee system in lawmaking bodies in the American colonies and states from 1750 to 1790. During these 40 years, the committee form of organization became the distinguishing feature of the American legislature, forming the basis of how laws are made in the United States to this day. The author examines the colonial legislatures and their transformation into bodies that functioned like the House of Commons in England. Specific attention is given to the emergence of standing committees and their unique adaptation to local needs. Moreover, the book analyzes the role of party leaders in influencing the work of committees and the overall legislative process.
