Description
Students will see politics in a whole new light after reading Hudson's provocative and popular text in which he raises fundamentally important questions: Does our National security state threaten the very democratic rights it is meant to defend? Does the expansion of judicial power endanger the tenets of our electoral system? Does the privileged position of business undermine economic equity and fairness? Focusing on eight challenges to American democracy, Hudson provides balanced, clear-sighted recommendations for reform, emphasizing that the strength of our political system rests on our ability to respond to these pressing issues.
