Books formed the backbone of his life: from Biggles in his boyhood home to G. K. Chesterton in his West London grammar school to rigorous...

Term Limits and Legislative Representation
ISBN: 9780521552332 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Virtually all legislative theory is built on the assumption that politicians are first and foremost re-election-seekers, and because so few countries have ever limited legislative re-election, this assumption has rarely been questioned. As a result, political science has been ill-equipped to offer insights on the impact of legislative term limits.
