1 GOVT 604 (DRAFT SYLLABUS) SEMINAR ON CONGRESS AND LEGISLATIVE BEHAVIOR Fall 2017 Dr. Joshua Semat Location: Robinson B 122 Office Hours: Tues 3:00-6:00 pm in the Johnson Center and by appointment TBA Course Description: This course is an intensive, graduate level seminar on the U.S. Congress and legislative behavior. Specific topics to be explored include: Congressional elections, representation, the dynamics of decision making in legislative bodies, the nature and processes of legislative organization, Congressional oversight of the bureaucracy, and the implications of Congressional dynamics on US foreign policy. Course Structure: The course will be conducted as a graduate seminar. Its success will depend on active and informed participation by everyone in the course. All participants will be expected to read and contemplate each week's readings. Students will also be expected to periodically demonstrate their grasp of the theoretical perspectives discussed in class via a series of written assignments. Student Learning Outcomes: Students will be able to evaluate both the formal and informal structure of any modern Congress in order to begin to understand the challenges and opportunities of lawmaking. They will attain general knowledge of the kinds of questions which legislative research in the American context asks, as well as the answers which have been most influential in modern understandings of the US Congress. They will be able to elaborate on general theories of how Congress functions and the sorts of outcomes it tends to produce. Required Texts: The legislative literature occupies a central place 1 in the canon of modern American political science. The readings for this course have been selected first with the intent of giving students an introduction to the classic texts of this corpus, and second with the intent of giving students some idea of the more contemporary work which engages with and/or challenges these foundational works. We will be reading nine books (which have been selected with an eye for things that show up on comprehensive exam reading lists), as well as a series of articles which students should be able to access through the Library s e-reserves. 2 With the exception of the first week of class, it is expected that students will come to the seminar already familiar with the readings. It is recommended that students also bring the readings with them to class, so that 1 Alongside political behavior research. 2 If any of the articles listed are not available through the library, they will be provided to the class via Blackboard.

2 we can work through passages in seminar (as well as to utilize them for their own reference while participating in class discussion.) Written Assignments: The written requirements for this seminar include three short response papers, a midterm paper, and a final paper. -Response papers should be roughly 2/5 double-spaced pages in length for master s/doctoral students, and should address the weeks readings, discussing the general themes and the implied trajectory of the research included therein. In order to ensure that at least some portion of the class has been able to set aside time for written reflection of the material every week, students will be required to sign up for slots ahead of time for the 3 weeks in which they will be writing response papers. -The midterm will cover the first portion of the class leading up to Capitol Day. Students will be tasked with completing a written exercise (~10 pages for master s, ~20 pages for doctoral) wherein they will prepare a brief on archetypal legislative behavior according to the literature. Details will be circulated in class, and the assignment will be due Nov. 3 rd at 11:59 pm. -The final paper will cover the second portion of the class. The written exercise will resemble the midterm in scale, but this time students will be tasked with demonstrating knowledge of how any particular interest or faction might succeed or fail in mobilizing Congress to achieve their desired policies according to the literature. Details will be circulated in class, and the assignment will be due Dec. 15 th at 11:59 pm. Course evaluation: Final grades for this course will be based on general class participation including attendance at GMU s Capitol Day (Oct. 27 th ) 3 (15%); response papers (25%), the midterm paper (30%); and the final paper (30%).
