"New
York Politics: A Tale of Two States"
Publisher Description: New York Politics examines aspects of
state government that are often hidden in the secret sessions of the
parties' legislative conferences: the closed-door budget; a
complicated array of opaque agencies, authorities, and local
governments; and a campaign finance system that lacks transparency.
New York is unique among the American states in the existence of
regional and demographic divisions, making it difficult to govern.
Edward V. Schneier, Antoinette Pole, and Anthony Maniscalco bring
clarity and understanding to the politics of the Empire State.This
third edition of the leading textbook on New York politics combines
historical, legal, statistical, and journalistic sources with the
candid perspectives of legislators, lobbyists, and other public
officials. Critical updates and new information include an analysis
of the rise and fall of Governor Andrew Cuomo, coverage of growing
demographic diversity in New York State and its government, and the
impact of unified government when the legislature and executive
branch are both controlled by the Democratic Party.
