Written by the man the New York Times once called "the chief theoretician and energizing force" of Reagan's new federalism, this book reveals the inside story of how President Reagan sought to take power and authority from the federal government and the Washington establishment and return it to state and local governments. Williamson skillfully combines the first comprehensive review of Reagan's federalism with an insider's account of the triumphs and disappointments in achieving these goals. Contents: Introduction; Federalism: A New Beginning; Ronald Reagan in California; Reagan's Six Year Quest for the Presidency; Decentralizing Through Block Grants; Regulatory Relief; State of the Union Initiative; The Federal Budget and The New Federalism; Conclusion.
