The Presidency and Domestic Policy: Comparing Leadership Styles, FDR to Biden

Autor Michael A. Genovese, Todd L. Belt, William W. Lammers
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 apr 2024
This book systematically examines the first terms of every president from FDR to Joe Biden and assesses the leadership style and policy agenda of each. Success in bringing about policy change is shown to hinge on the leadership style and skill in managing a variety of institutional and public relationships. Presidents are evaluated based on the level of opportunity they faced. The third edition of this timely book adds chapters on Donald Trump and Joe Biden and focuses on the significant domestic policy challenges of their respective times. For students of presidential history, leadership, and public policy, The Presidency and Domestic Policy provides unique insights into contemporary presidential leadership in a highly partisan age.
New to the Third Edition
  • Two new chapters focusing on Trump and Biden, showing its policy similarities as well as differences from earlier administrations
  • A reassessment of the domestic policy legacies of Bill Clinton (especially in regard to crime and the financial services industries)
  • A sharper focus on racial politics resulting from both the Clinton and Obama eras
  • An exploration of administrative approaches to governing domestically and unilateral decision making—normally reserved for the foreign policy arena but now applied on the domestic side as well (e.g., executive orders)
  • The increasing linkage between domestic and foreign policy issue arenas, particularly in the areas of immigration, trade, and environmental policy
  • An assessment of judicial politics in the framework of the four leadership dimensions presidents bring to office, and also in terms of the impact on domestic policy outputs

Recenzii

Praise for the New Edition:

"this new edition adds George W. Bush's and Barack Obama's presidencies...The authors argue that, given their levels of opportunity, different presidents overachieved while others underachieved...This book is clearly written, easy to understand, and full of interesting anecdotes to help support its arguments. Summing Up: Highly recommended. General readers and undergraduate students."
—CHOICE

"Building on prior editions, Genovese, Belt, and Lammers have produced an insightful, discriminating, and cogent update to the study of presidential leadership in domestic policy that melds theory with the challenges individual presidents have confronted in the modern era. This highly readable account is a 'must' for courses on the presidency and American politics."
—Richard S. Conley, University of Florida

“Genovese, Belt, and Lammers have set a new standard for studies of presidential leadership in domestic policy. Their book gives a close-up view of modern presidents in action, while keeping in mind the larger context in which chief executives operate. Their analysis is thoughtful and judicious, and their case studies are interesting and well-written. This book will be useful to students and scholars alike.”
—Ryan J. Barilleaux, Miami University of Ohio

Praise for the First Edition:

“This is an elegant, even magisterial work on the presidency that combines theoretical sophistication with engaging presidential storytelling. Students as well as scholars will appreciate this fine book.”
—Robert J. Spitzer, SUNY Cortland
