How Governors Built the Modern American Presidency: Haney Foundation Series

Autor Saladin M. Ambar
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 mai 2012
Saladin M. Ambar's innovative study is the first book to explicitly credit governors with making the presidency what it is today. This book explodes the idea that the modern presidency began after 1945, instead placing its origins squarely in the Progressive Era.

Recenzii

"Ambar identifies the origins of the expanded twentieth-century presidency in late nineteenth-century gubernatorial leadership. This is the first effort I know of that undertakes a systematic examination of the relationships between gubernatorial politics and the emergence of presidential activism in the Progressive Era and after."-Bruce Miroff, University at Albany-SUNY
