This title was first published in 1993. One of the tests to which
we subject our presidents concerns their capacity to lead, their
ability to achieve their political and policy goals. This is the
test of whether presidents make a difference to their institution,
their government, and their country. Professor Steven A. Shull
applies this test to Presidents Ronald Reagan and George Bush. His
focus is on their civil rights policies, not only in theory and
rhetoric, but also in practice. Shull examines this area of public
policy as a measure of presidential leadership and substantive
policy change. The objective of this volume is to document how two
conservative presidents confronted and confounded a policy they
opposed: the primacy of the national government in ensuring social
and economic equity, particularly among minorities and women.
