Gatekeepers to the Franchise
ISBN: 9780875803418 / Angielski / Twarda / 291 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The history of democracy in America is the history of the extension of voting privileges from white, male property-owners to blacks, to women, and to citizens over eighteen years of age.

Poor, minority, and urban communities report the lowest turnout rates, calling into question the reality of American democracy. Who or what is to blame? Among the many suspects, from stealthy politicians to...

Those who do not have their heads buried too deeply in partisan sands will know that there is something awry with the American form of electoral democracy.

He further proposes practical improvements that will make our surprisingly peculiar...

The election of 1896 the subject of Paul Glad's expert study marked the emergence of new forces and new voices in American life which were to win power and impact in the 20th century.

Neither William McKinley nor William Jennings Bryan could resist ordering the facts to fit these mythologies; there were a few realists in the campaign, but they and their followers were vigorously branded as impractical visionaries. Mr. Glad discusses in...
