Paperback. Condizione: New. Because the constitutional separation of powers often leads to delay or obstruction rather than coordinated policymaking, U.S. presidents are increasingly acting unilaterally to move policy. With the issuance of executive orders, signing statements, and policy memoranda, unilateralism has become a defining feature of the American presidency. Can Congress effectively use checks and balances to counter presidential unilateralism? Strategic Responsiveness takes a theoretically developed and empirically oriented approach- situated within legal and historical contexts-to explore the system of separated powers. The authors find that Congress is not as weak as many perceive it to be and show how members of Congress often anticipate individualized policy loss and choose to respond. These policy struggles shape the constitutional order as surely as broad, statutory constraints might. While the aggrandizement of the presidency and the usurpation of congressional control are not countered, ordinary policy losses are. For members and senators, presidential overreach is fine as long as the policy wins continue, but policy losses may motivate members to reassert congressional prerogatives in policymaking through increased oversight. Strategic Responsiveness reveals how profoundly important policy-level disputes are in the politics of maintaining a particular constitutional order. …

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - A long-deserved survey, of the everyday building types that line our suburban roads and parking lots, affords an informative and diverting critique of their architectural and sociocultural foibles. This project began with an essay on the 'McMansion' phenomenon, and it grew to become a meditation on the assorted different building types that are found in every American city and suburb. While it's true that good buildings do exist for each of those categories, they are very much the exception, these buildings more typically ranging from dull to assertively ugly. The book is meant to be a fairly pitiless and revealing look at this 'vast wasteland,' with an architect's hat on but without resort to the profession's fads and verbiages. Several natural categories inform the organization of the contents, including commercial, residential, and institutional, even including cars and other manifestations of 'architecture on the move' that have also lost their way in stylistic terms. The writing includes capsule histories of many of the building types included, plus some lesser-known facts and some sidebars on sociocultural aspects which make up much of one's experience of these places. Stylistically, a bit of an acerbic tone makes for diverting as well as informative reading. …
