520 1 $a"An unprecedented 1974 U.S. Supreme Court ruling declared that former president Nixon did not have the absolute and unreviewable privilege to withhold presidential communications, thus forcing him to turn over to the special Watergate prosecutor the very documents that destroyed his presidency. The passage of the 1978 Presidential Records Act (PRA) established public dominion over White House materials beginning with the Reagan presidency. The PRA represents but one of many cornerstone statutes in the flurry of post-Watergate legislative measures passed by Congress to ensure a more open and accountable government. Subverting Open Government addresses these major themes under various presidential terms from the Reagan years to the second Bush administration, including publicity and secrecy, legislative and executive branch conflict over presidential materials, and historical legacy versus open government."--BOOK JACKET.
