Recent years have witnessed substantial work in the legislative
studies field. But what do we know about legislatures today and are
there clear criteria for comparing and classifying them?
This is a new review of the state of our knowledge of parliament
and tackles key questions: Do legislatures matter in legislative
terms, and, if so, how much? What is the extent of the
legislature's control of the legislative process. How can we
classify legislatures on the basis of their relative legislative
performance. Five measures of the policy power of parliaments are
applied in the country/region chapters.
This book was previously published as a special issue of the
leading Journal of Legislative Studies.
