Legislating Without Experience

Legislative term limits are reshaping the political landscape in numerous states; however, few of the effects are consistent across all states. Everything from the political environment to the level of legislative professionalism within a state influences the trends often attributed to term limits. To cut through these many trends and isolate the ones most likely created by term limits, this volume develops comparisons of states with term limits to similar states without term limits. The comparisons are organized by levels of legislative professionalism.Farmer, Rick is the author of 'Legislating Without Experience', published 2007 under ISBN 9780739111451 and ISBN 0739111450.
