商品描述

For courses in American Government

See who gets what, when and how, in American politics
Revel(TM) Politics in America introduces students to the political struggles that drive democracy, examining the participants, the stakes, the processes, and the institutional arenas that comprise the power game of American politics. This pragmatic text is built around power and elite--mass conflict, and written from a centrist perspective. Using one of the classic definitions of politics -- "who gets what, when and how" -- as their unifying framework, authors Keith Gaddie and Thomas Dye focus on conflict and controversy, challenging students to think and talk about hot-button issues as they learn the basics of American government. 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.
This digital package includes Revel Georgia Politics in a State of Change, 3rd Edition, allowing instructors to easily integrate coverage of Georgia government and politics into the American Government survey course. Combining historical background with the most current scholarship, authors Charles Bullock and Keith Gaddie tell the story of Georgia politics from the state's founding to the institutions, policies, and people changing Georgia today.
