SynopsisThis book provides a ground-breaking discussion of how the President structures the White House staff to manage the administration's domestic policy process. The domestic policy structure for every president from Nixon through Clinton is examined in depth. Designed as a supplement, The Domestic Presidency lends an important added dimension to courses on the Presidency, Public Administration or Bureaucracy (describes how the President manages the executive branch through the White House and Cabinet); Congress (sheds light on executive-legislative relations and shows how the White House works with the Cabinet to shape legislation), or Introduction to American Government (provides valuable insights on the process of domestic policy making)., Examines the domestic policy office through six administrations, from Nixon through Clinton, demonstrating that domestic policymaking has become an institutionalized component of the White House staff in the modern presidency, and explains how the domestic policy staff operates.
