Ebook: The Struggle For Democracy - 2018 Elections and Updates Edition

The Struggle for Democracy gives students the tools they need to decode the American political system, analyze its pieces, consider its linkages, and identify opportunities to make a difference. Taking a fresh approach to common American government topics, authors Edward Greenberg and Benjamin Page present a simple but powerful framework of evidence-based research to guide students to discover how government, politics, and the larger society are intertwined. Prompting students to make critical judgments about how well our government works, the authors pose the questions “How democratic are we?” and “Can government do anything well?” The 2018 Elections and Updates Edition offers new narrative coverage of the major issues from today’s headlines including the 2018 midterm elections, recent policy under the Trump administration, and the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.
