John Carey’s research focuses on relations between executives and legislatures in presidential systems, and on the effects of electoral ambition on political behavior. One project concerns the connection between transparency in legislative procedure and the accountability of politicians. Another is on sources of unity and divisiveness within legislative parties and coalitions. A third is an ongoing collaborative investigation of the effects of term limits on U.S. state legislatures. His books include Presidents and Assemblies: Constitutional Design and Electoral Dynamics, and Executive Decree Authority (both with Matthew Shugart), Term Limits in the State Legislatures (with Richard Niemi and Lynda Powell) and Term Limits and Legislative Representation.
