Summary: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 system campaign finance 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 with the legislature and executive controlled by the Democratic Party.
