9780415012188: Explaining American Politics: Issues and Interpretations

Synopsis

In recent years, political upheaval, social change, and economic decline have exerted such stresses and strains on the American political system that the system and its institutions have increasingly been questioned. "Explaining American Politics" is designed to help students understand how the contemporary American political system really works. A team of distinguished contributors develop authoritative analyses of such controversial topics as: the impact of conservatism and its political consequences; changing perceptions of the presidency and the problem of legislative leadership; the alleged and continued irresponsibility of Congress; the chronic weaknesses and manifest failures of bureaucracy; the apparently inexorable activism of the Supreme Court; the ostensible decline of political parties and the prospect of electoral realignment.
