Back Jacket
The transportation of freight performs a critical linking function in the American economy. For most of this century, it was heavily regulated by federal and state governments. Now most of that regulation has been greatly reduced - with the exception of state regulation of the trucking industry. Teske, Best, and Mintrom examine the controversies surrounding state and federal regulatory oversight and present useful recommendations for changing transportation regulation and federalism.
