| Abstract | A "mini-manual" for individuals in education and the human services interested in increasing their involvement in the political process presupposes that much powerlessness is self-imposed, and encourages attitude change to make the most of potential individual power. The manual is also an introduction to lobbying and the legislative process. After an introduction to building political "credit" with policy-makers, the second chapter discusses the need for the individual to have a political state of mind and acceptance of the legitimacy of political activity. Subsequent chapters discuss (1) accumulating political capital with votes, volunteers, dollars, publicity, and access to voters, and the persuasiveness of numbers when dealing with policy policy-makers; (2) politicians' views of educators and the avoidance of such stereotypes; (3) personalizing political contacts; (4) lobbying from a distance; (5) the usefulness of professional association efforts; and (6) formal legislative hearings. Finally, a list of print references concerning the Washington, D.C., political scene and congressional politics is provided, and 20 brief rules for action are outlined. (MSE) |
