The New Electoral Politics of Race
ISBN: 9780817311490 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Historically, race has always been at the heart of American politics, and southern politics more specifically.

The election of George Wallace as governor of Alabama in 1962 underscored the electoral power of ruthless racial rhetoric, not only in Alabama, but throughout the South and the entire country. Almost 40 years later, segregation is no longer legal, tensions between blacks and whites have lessened, and the influx...

ISBN: 9780822957348 / Angielski / Miękka / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What makes people decide to vote? In addressing this simple question, Andre Blais examines the factors that increase or decrease turnout at the aggregate, cross-national level and considers what affects people s decision to vote or to abstain.

Blais tackles this... What makes people decide to vote? In addressing this simple question, Andre Blais examines the factors that increase or decrease turnout at the agg... |

Absentee and Early Voting
ISBN: 9780844742472 / Angielski / Miękka / 105 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Americans once gathered on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November to pick the nation's leaders. Election Day was a day of civic engagement when neighbors met at the polls and then cast their ballots. In the past twenty-five years, however, America has undergone a revolution in voting unlike anything it has experienced in the first 200 years of its history. We have created a system of many mini-election-days leading up to the main event. Today nearly a quarter of Americans vote before Election Day, either by absentee ballot or at early voting places. In 1980, only one in twenty...
