Was the Bicameral Legislature an American Invention?

Описание к видео Was the Bicameral Legislature an American Invention?

Where did the Founders get the idea for a bicameral legislature? Professor Keith Whittington discusses their experience with the British Parliament and also with local colonial legislatures. This combined perspective gave the Founders a basic structure for Congress, and also helped them evaluate what types of power the legislature should or should not have.

Keith Whittington is Professor of Law at Yale Law School. He was formerly the William Nelson Cromwell Professor of Politics at Princeton University.
