Description

Packed with current, global examples, Dooley/Patten's WHY POLITICS MATTERS: AN INTRODUCTION TO POLITICAL SCIENCE, 3rd edition, explains why politics is important to you -- and how you can get involved. It gives you the building blocks to understand political science and provides a big picture of the field as it explores political theory, comparative politics, the U.S. government and international relations. Thoroughly up to date, it covers the rise of populism, nationalism, Brexit, the Trump presidency, U.S. relations with North Korea and China, the pink wave in the 2018 Congressional midterms, the impact of climate change on international relations and more. In addition, exercises throughout prompt you to think critically about chapter concepts and put what you learn into practice.
