The Hallowing of Congress (Paperback)
impression à la demandeVendeur : Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, IL, Etats-Unis
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Congress was designed to be the center of American self-government. Today, it often appears more capable of producing conflict than governing through it.The Hallowing of Congress: How Congress Lost Its Power examines how the People's Branch gradually surrendered its constitutional authority, weakened its own procedures, and allowed power to migrate to presidents, courts, federal agencies, party leaders, and private interests.John Pritchett traces the decline from an era when Congress routinely debated, amended, and passed consequential legislation to a system increasingly shaped by closed rules, routine obstruction, fundraising demands, manufactured crises, performative hearings, and partisan spectacle. What remains is an institution that retains enormous authority on paper but struggles to exercise it in practice.The title carries a deliberate double meaning. Congress is still hallowed as a symbol of representative democracy, even as it has been hollowed of much of its governing capacity.This is not a partisan indictment. It is a structural diagnosis of an institution that helped create its own weakness.The book explores how legislative retreat expanded executive, judicial, and administrative power; why public trust collapsed; and how incentives now reward visibility, outrage, and obstruction more than negotiation or legislative achievement.Yet this is not an elegy. It is a map for recovery. The book offers practical reforms involving committee authority, amendment rules, the filibuster, emergency powers, public accountability, campaign pressures, civic participation, and congressional modernization.Accessible, urgent, and grounded in constitutional history, The Hallowing of Congress asks whether representative government can survive when its central institution no longer leads.Congress can be repaired-but only if lawmakers and citizens once again expect it to govern. An investigation into how the heart of democracy surrendered its strength to spectacle and bureaucracy, offering a vital blueprint to reclaim legislative authority from the brink of irrelevance.
