Francis examines the legislative committee "game" in the United States, arguing that within the constitutional context rational behavior leads to decentralized agenda setting. The committee system represents the lynchpin in this decentralization, and Francis charts the flow of decisionmaking from individuals in subcommittees to full committees to the entire legislature. Drawing on the database of all 50 state legislatures, a survey of over 2000 legislators, and an intensive study of the state legislatures of Indiana and Missouri, he describes how the leadership sets decentralizing events in motion at the beginning of each session by accomodating requests for committee assignments and appointments; and shows how the decentralized decision making produces a higher bill passage rate.

Political and economic institutions are typically governed by committees that face the challenge to reconcile the preferences of their members. How should decision rules be designed to generate fair and sustainable agreements, for example if committee members represent groups of different sizes? This book uses game-theoretic concepts and models to address the issue of political decision-making processes. In addition to providing a survey on basic game-theoretic tools in the analysis of political decisions, the author looks at specific issues such as two-tiered voting systems or the influence of lobbyists on legislative committees, and shows how the models can be applied to real-world contexts such as the EU decision-making institutions.
