SUMMARY

The government of the United States is a living system. As such, it is subject to subtle change and modifi cation over time, but still maintains a constancy via its central nervous system-a congressional form of rule. Woodrow Wilson saw congressional government as "Committee" government. It is administered by semi-independent executive agents who obey the dictates of a legislature, though the agents themselves are not of ultimate authority or accountability. Written by Wilson when he was a twenty-eight-year-old graduate student, this is an astounding examination of the American legislative branches, especially in light of the fact that Wilson had not yet even visited Congress at the time of its composition.Wilson, Woodrow is the author of 'Congressional Government: A Study in American Politics - Woodrow Wilson - Paperback' with ISBN 9780801825569 and ISBN 0801825563.
