Democracy Under Pressure, Alternate Edition (with PoliPrep) Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

A political science text for the 21st Century, DEMOCRACY UNDER PRESSURE ALTERNATE, with no policy chapters, has provided well over a million students with a comprehensive look at the fundamentals of American Government.

Milton Cummings, a respected scholar and academic, and David Wise, a best selling author and political analyst, bring their talents to bear on a text that conveys a balanced, realistic guide to American politics while describing the institutions of American government.

In this edition, the theme of "democracy under pressure" is highlighted more fully in the narrative and in the boxed features that focus students on the way democracy responds to needs and demands of various groups over time.

The text includes a discussion of the systems approach - a framework of analysis that discusses the political process in terms of inputs and outputs - as well as a key question and related questions to consider in each chapter.

DEMOCRACY UNDER PRESSURE focuses throughout on the gap that exists between rhetoric and reality in government today.

Streamlined content in this edition makes the book even more accessible and appealing to students and instructors alike.
