More about the book

Exploring the dynamics of political parties in the U.S. Congress, the author argues for a theory that aligns with the practical goals of policy-making, elections, and party cohesion. Emphasizing the need for adaptable party structures and leadership, the book highlights how majority leaders manage legislation, collaborate with the president, and shape legislators' voting behaviors. Smith notes the strong circumstantial evidence of party influence and the complexities of measuring it, while underscoring the significance of party size and the dual nature of influence in congressional strategies.
