Book Synopsis Interstate Cooperation by : Joseph F. Zimmerman
Download or read book Interstate Cooperation written by Joseph F. Zimmerman. This book was released on 2002-08-30. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zimmerman places in perspective the important roles played by interstate compacts and interstate administrative agreements in the governance systems of the United States. Compacts are identified and classified by type. Particular emphasis is placed on federal government promotion of compacts, including the U.S. Congress enactment of federal-state compacts in which the federal government joins member states as partners to achieve stated goals. Formal and informal interstate administrative agreements have increased in number dramatically during the past six decades and relate to both minor and very important issues. Credit for many interstate administrative agreements must be ascribed to associations of state government officers which encourage their members to promote interstate cooperation and also draft model state laws and administrative agreements. Although compacts and agreements have lubricated the functioning of the United States governmental system, as Zimmerman makes clear, the full potential of compacts and agreements has not been achieved to date, and he makes recommendations to improve the level of interstate cooperation. An important resource for scholars and students of American government—federal, state, and local—as well as administrators and policymakers.

Book Synopsis Interstate Cooperation, Second Edition by : Joseph F. Zimmerman
Download or read book Interstate Cooperation, Second Edition written by Joseph F. Zimmerman. This book was released on 2012-06-14. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cooperative interstate relations are essential for maintaining the economic and political union established by the United States Constitution. Despite this importance, interstate compacts, federal-state compacts, and interstate administrative agreements have generally been neglected by political scientists for more than half a century. In this second edition of Interstate Cooperation, Joseph F. Zimmerman demonstrates that many public goals can be achieved by either a compact or an agreement. Interstate administrative agreements, moreover, may be verbal or written, and have increased sharply in number because their flexibility allows changes to be made quickly without legislative authorization. Zimmerman aims to stimulate additional research on these forms of interstate cooperation in order to help formulate additional innovative solutions to our major interstate problems.

Book Synopsis Interstate Compacts by : Marian E. Ridgeway
Download or read book Interstate Compacts written by Marian E. Ridgeway. This book was released on 1971. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The interstate compact, long dormant but now dynamic, has become a significant tool for agreement on vital issues. Prompted by the uncomfortable knowledge that changes are being made in the constitutional system by this device, without public awareness or appreciation, Miss Ridgeway has attempted to bring into focus what these compacts can do and what can be expected in the future from them by calling attention to four of the more important compacts a single state--Illinois--has with its neighbors. Her in-depth approach should prove extraordinarily revealing to elected officials as well as to students of government.
