Until 1994, Republicans had not held a majority of seats in the U.S. House since 1954, more than twice the time that either party has dwelt in the minority throughout congressional history. This is the first book-length comprehensive analysis since 1970 of the causes and consequences, and possible cures for the House Republicans' "permanent minority" status. Written in a nontechnical style, Congress' Permanent Minority? will be of great interest to scholars, students, and the political community.
William F. Connelly, Jr. is associate professor in the Department of Politics at Washington and Lee University. John J. Pitney, Jr. is assistant professor of government at Claremont McKenna College.
