machine politics and political bosses  

Definición

  • THE ERA OF boss rule, when powerful men could sway voters one way or the other through their control of a political machine, has largely come to an end. But this does not mean that machine politics, understood as using control of government to provide favors in exchange for political support, is disappearing. [Source: Encyclopedia of U.S. Campaigns, Elections, and Electoral Behavior; Machine Politics and Political Bosses]
