About this book

Congressional government by Woodrow Wilson presents a study in American politics, with a preface addressing changes in the system since the book was written. The discussion of constitutional change describes institutions retaining their original names while undergoing essential alterations in character, leaving names more persistent than functions. The account of federal affairs describes legislative and administrative practice and accumulated precedent broadening the government's sphere and altering its functions without perceptibly changing constitutional vocabulary.

The financial discussion covers the dealings of Congress with revenue, expenditure, and supply, offering a general view without technical detail. The comparison of financial policies contrasts a cooperative ministry directed by a representative chamber with a representative body directing policy and receiving only clerical executive aid.
