Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book examines the consequences of nationalization for members of Congress and the voters they represent. Constituents have come to evaluate their elected representatives on the basis of their national policy records.

During campaigns, candidates reflect these expectations back to voters by emphasizing broad policy issues that are largely divorced from local conditions.
