The tragic events of September 11, 2001 provided President
George W. Bush with unprecedented levels of public support. The
Bush administration used this support to push forward many aspects
of its policy agenda. Anecdotal evidence in the popular press
provided many examples of the administration pushing the envelope
on the politicization of federal agencies and policies. But, no
comprehensive study has yet been prepared to examine how and
whether the Bush administration was really able to substantially
re-shape bureaucratic policy and outputs, especially in the domains
of domestic policy. In this book, leading scholars of presidential
influence over policy examine a wide range of agencies and policies
to address this question. While the findings vary somewhat by
policy area, the results suggest that the Bush administration was
not able to achieve many of its goals, as agency processes are
difficult to change.
