Congressional Farm Politics and Economic Foreign Policy
In: The annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science, Band 331, Heft 1, S. 98-102
Abstract
The primacy of foreign policy centers attention upon Congressional politics with its wonted stress upon local and particular issues. Farm political influence is considerable in Congress where domestic farm policies, often with unfortu nate effects upon foreign policy, are strongly rooted. Farm politicians in and out of Congress must help improve the legis lative process in order to give the emergent national concern in a sound and effective foreign policy its merited support. While some adaptation of present procedures is possible, the needs of the times require a courageous examination of more sweeping proposals for change.
