About this product
Product Information
The Senate is becoming more like the House of Representatives in its increasing levels of partisanship and ideology. A transformation of the institution appears to be underfoot, posing questions about the Senate's role as the chamber in which cool judgement prevails. This book discusses and analyzes the changes in Senate life including rules and procedures, leadership and party organization, executive and Senate relations, debate and deliberation, and media spotlight. Then there is a re-examination of Senate efficacy, legitamacy and appropriateness as an aristocratic chamber in an increasingly democratic system of government.

Reviews
The Contentious Senate contains some of the best insights into how the current Senate works in the context of mounting partisanship and increased party discipline. The well-known congressional scholars who have contributed to this volume are some of the best in the business and their chapters show it. I recommend this book for those who want to understand the workings of the Senate in the era of divided party government, the permanent campaign, and extreme partisanship., It is a noteworthy addition to the congressional literature that previously explored similar prior developments in the House of Representatives. Strongly recommended for upper-division undergraduates, graduates, faculty, and professionals., A series of informative and stimulating essays about the contemporary United States Senate. Campbell and Rae have assembled in this slender volume eight timely essays by some of the best-known congressional scholars. Because of the controversial character of many of the authors' conclusions about the contemporary Senate, this book is guaranteed to spark lively discussions., Taken together, there's something to enjoy in this collection, whether one is enrolled in a political science course or teaching it.
