Miller Center report investigates effects of government restructuring
The University's Miller Center for Public Affairs has released the first study in recent years to review executive reorganization in the 20th century.
The report's release is timely, as Congress faces the crucial task of considering action to restructure the federal government as part of President George W. Bush's Homeland Security plan.
Miller Center Professors Brian Balogh and Philip Zelikow authored the report, along with Miller Center fellow Joanna Grisinger and nine other historians and political scientists.
Included in the study are several conclusions that Congress may consider in this period of major government reorganization.
First, they noted that the constitutional structure of our government creates barriers to major executive reorganization, which causes the process of change to last for years or even decades.
Furthermore, short-term costs of reorganization are severe.
