A scholarly study of how, why, and when state legislators enact ethics legislation that applies to their own behavior,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Shadowlands of Conduct: Ethics and State Politics (American Governance and Public Policy series) (Paperback)
The Shadowlands of Conduct: Ethics and State Politics is a scholarly study of how, why, and when state legislators enact ethics legislation that applies to their own behavior. Revealing that such self-regulation tends to take place only when public pressure becomes an irresistible force in democratic elections, thereby necessitating a constantly vigilant citizenry, The Shadowlands of Conduct meticulously applies case studies, extensive research, and the author's expertise as an assistant professor in the Department of Political Science at the University of Florida. Chapters divide modern ethics legislation into pre-Watergate and post-Watergate periods, and also warn about the limitations of ethics self-regulation. An excellent history and thought-provoking discussion resource especially for political science and law students.
