Bringing together a series of leading scholars, the volume
comprises ten important, engaging and critical essays on the
complex character of America's divided democracy. Challenging
conventional textbook wisdoms, the collection provides new
interpretations on American government institutions, public
policies and popular culture from jazz and rap to The
Simpsons and South Park. Consistently stimulating,
readable and provocative, the book allows readers to make their own
informed and dispassionate assessment of the current state of the
‘American experiment'.
American Politics and Society Today will be of substantial interest to undergraduate and graduate students of American politics and history, comparative politics, public policy and cultural studies.
