Book Description
This report assesses domestic political support for internationalist foreign policy by analyzing the motivations of members of Congress on key foreign policy issues. It includes case studies on major foreign policy debates in recent years, including the use of force, foreign aid, trade policy and U.S.-Russia relations. It also develops a new series of archetypes for describing the foreign policy worldviews of members of the 115th Congress to replace the current stale and unsophisticated labels of internationalist, isolationist, hawk and dove. Report findings emphasize areas of bipartisan cooperation on foreign policy issues given member ideologies.

The Evolving Congress
Author: Congressional Research Congressional Research Service Library of Congress
Publisher: CreateSpace
ISBN: 9781512234244
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 490
Book Description
For 100 years, the Congressional Research Service (CRS) has been charged with providing nonpartisan and authoritative research and analysis to inform the legislative debate in Congress. This has involved a wide range of services, such as written reports on issues and the legislative process, consultations with Members and their staff, seminars on policy and procedural matters, and congressional testimony. The Government and Finance Division at CRS took a step back from its intensive day-to-day service to Congress to analyze important trends in the evolution of the institution-its organization and policymaking process-over the last many decades. Changes in the political landscape, technology, and representational norms have required Congress to evolve as the Nation's most democratic national institution of governance. The essays in this print demonstrate that Congress has been a flexible institution that has changed markedly in recent years in response to the social and political environment.

Hearing on H.R. 6, the Higher Education Amendments of 1998
Author: United States. Congress. House. Committee on Education and the Workforce
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
These hearings were concerned with the authorization of the Higher Education Act 1998 amendments. The hearing focused on affordability of postsecondary education, simplifying the student financial aid system, and academic quality for students. The document reports testimony of representatives of professional associations and Pennsylvania postsecondary institutions. Some of the views expressed included: the need to simplify the application process and eligibility for Title IV student financial aid programs; the need to continue equal access to Title IV funds for private career schools; the Pell Grant Program as the primary source of financial assistance for community college students; the confusion and wasted time caused by frequent regulatory changes and excessive communications to colleges by the Department of Education; the desirability of reviewing the current needs analysis system to determine whether all relevant data are being used to calculate the expected family contribution; campus-based aid programs (College Work-Study, Perkins Loans, and Student Educational Opportunity Grants) that are crucial for students who wish to attend independent colleges; and the various performance outcome measures that should be used in addition to loan default rates to ensure the educational quality and accountability of colleges.
