Utah Politics
Author: Jon Cox
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781732849709
Category : Political candidates
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
Utah is a peculiar place, and Utahns are a peculiar people. Men overwhelming dominate Utah business and politics. But it was also the first state in the nation where women cast a vote and is home to the nation’s first female state senator (who had to defeat her husband in order to get there). Utah today has the highest level of foreign language fluency with international trade a key driver of the state’s economic development. Utahns overwhelmingly believe in limited government and reduced public spending. However, from its initial founding, Utah also has a proud history of supporting the arts, through both public and private efforts. When Utah was first established by Latter-day Saint pioneers, its settlers chose a place where they could be completely isolated from the rest of the nation. Within that isolation, it makes sense that the political culture could turn out to be, well, a little bit quirky.

Utah Politics Under the Dome
Author: Adam R. Brown
Publisher: CreateSpace
ISBN: 9781502390967
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
Each winter, the Utah Legislature passes twice as many bills during its brief seven-week session as the U.S. Congress passes in an entire year. After the Legislature adjourns, the state's local governments continue crafting policy at an astonishing pace. Most of the decisions that affect Utah's residents, schools, businesses, and communities are made here in Utah, not in Washington DC. Fortunately, Utah's state and local governments are as accessible as they are important. Four in five Utahns live within an hour's drive of the Capitol and can easily observe Legislative proceedings in person. This volume peels back some of the mysteries surrounding Utah's political processes, enabling even the most timid newcomer to engage Utah politics with confidence.

The Utah State Constitution
Author: Jean Bickmore White
Publisher:
ISBN: 0199779287
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
In The Utah State Constitution, Jean Bickmore White offers a comprehensive review of the unique historical background and the 100-year development of the Utah State Constitution. First drafted in 1896, at the beginning of Utah's statehood, the original constitution survived until the early 1970s with little change. Since that time there has been a wave of constitutional reform that has produced change in virtually every article. This reference guide shows these changes section-by-section and explores their purpose and meaning. This book will be of interest to readers seeking information about the law, politics, and history of Utah. Previously published by Greenwood, this title has been brought back in to circulation by Oxford University Press with new verve. Re-printed with standardization of content organization in order to facilitate research across the series, this title, as with all titles in the series, is set to join the dynamic revision cycle of The Oxford Commentaries on the State Constitutions of the United States. The Oxford Commentaries on the State Constitutions of the United States is an important series that reflects a renewed international interest in constitutional history and provides expert insight into each of the 50 state constitutions. Each volume in this innovative series contains a historical overview of the state's constitutional development, a section-by-section analysis of its current constitution, and a comprehensive guide to further research. Under the expert editorship of Professor G. Alan Tarr, Director of the Center on State Constitutional Studies at Rutgers University, this series provides essential reference tools for understanding state constitutional law. Books in the series can be purchased individually or as part of a complete set, giving readers unmatched access to these important political documents.
