Description

Explore the evolution of executive power in 'The Imperial Presidency and American Politics: Governance by Edicts and Coups' from Routledge. This book examines the long-term shift in how American presidents have expanded the authority of their office. While many view recent political developments as isolated events, this text argues that the tendency to act unilaterally is part of a decades-long trend in US government and politics. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of how presidents have historically used their power to bypass Congress and achieve their objectives. By looking beyond recent headlines, this work provides context on the expansion of presidential influence and the potential for future leaders to continue transforming the structure of the executive branch. It is an essential read for anyone studying the history of American democracy and the changing landscape of political governance.

Key Features

Examines the historical expansion of presidential powers and the rise of unilateral executive action in the United States.

Provides context on how recent political figures fit into a long-standing pattern of increasing office authority.

Analyzes the relationship between the presidency and Congress, focusing on how executive edicts impact legislative functions.

Offers a deep look into the political developments of the past several decades regarding American governance.

Published by Routledge, a trusted name for academic and political science literature.
