Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Coalition drift refers to the divergence in policy preferences or goals between a federal agency and its political principals (Congress or the president) over time, especially after a change in administration or legislative majority. This divergence creates a principal-agent problem, where the principal (Congress or the president) may struggle to ensure that the agent (the federal agency) acts in accordance with their preferences or directives, due to differences in policy goals, information asymmetry, or other factors.
