Biography

Thomas Christiansen is a Professor of Political Science and European Integration at LUISS University, Italy.

Elena Griglio is a Senior Parliamentary Official of the Italian Senate and teaches Comparative Public Law at LUISS University, Italy.

Nicola Lupo is a Professor of Public Law and Director of the Center for Parliamentary Studies (CESP) at LUISS University, Italy.

"Parliamentary administrations assure that legislatures’ formal authority translates into de facto power. The editors provide unique insights on parliamentary administrations worldwide. Historical trajectories, institutional capabilities and current challenges are systematically compared. An overdue Public Administration complement to Parliamentary Studies."

Michael W. Bauer, European University Institute, Florence, Italy.

"A major contribution to an overlooked, but key element of the political system. This volume breaks new ground in the range of questions it addresses and the systematic analysis it undertakes. An impressive feature is that it extends beyond the ‘usual suspects’ in making its selection of cases."

Hussein Kassim, University of East Anglia, United Kingdom.

"This handbook highlights the central importance of administrative resources within democratic legislatures through a broad array of case studies and a careful selection of comparative thematic chapters. The volume provides a new and invaluable resource for comparative research on the quality, capacity and evolution of administrative organization in legislatures."

Amie Kreppel, Professor and Jean Monnet Chair, University of Florida, USA.
