Why Washington Won't Work: Polarization, Political Trust, and the Governing Crisis
ISBN: 9780226299211 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Polarization is at an all-time high in the United States. But contrary to popular belief, Americans are polarized not so much in their policy preferences as in their feelings toward their political opponents: To an unprecedented degree, Republicans and Democrats simply do not like one another. No surprise that these deeply held negative feelings are central to the recent (also unprecedented) plunge in congressional productivity. The past three Congresses have gotten less done than any since scholars began measuring congressional productivity. In Why Washington Won't Work, Marc J....

Going to War in Iraq: When Citizens and the Press Matter
ISBN: 9780226304236 / Angielski / Miękka / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Conventional wisdom holds that the Bush administration was able to convince the American public to support a war in Iraq on the basis of specious claims and a shifting rationale because Democratic politicians decided not to voice opposition and the press simply failed to do its job.
Drawing on the most comprehensive survey of public reactions to the war, Stanley Feldman, Leonie Huddy, and George E. Marcus revisit this critical period and come back with a very different story. Polling data from that critical period shows that the Bush administration's carefully orchestrated campaign not...

Resistance to Tyrants, Obedience to God: Reason, Religion, and Republicanism at the American Founding
ISBN: 9781498515467 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Both reason and religion have been acknowledged by scholars to have had a profound impact on the foundation and formation of the American regime. But the significance, pervasiveness, and depth of that impact have also been disputed. While many have approached the American founding period with an interest in the influence of Enlightenment reason or Biblical religion, they have often assumed such influences to be exclusive, irreconcilable, or contradictory. Few scholarly works have sought to study the mutual influence of reason and religion as intertwined strands shaping the American historical...

Red Kool Aid, Blue Kool-Aid tells the story of a dizzying year on Capitol Hill from the vantage point of a physician working on health care reform in the earliest years of the push to ObamaCare. While explaining the details that went into the bill's ultimate content, the story focuses more on how the policy, process and politics surrounding the Democrats' goal of health care reform became subjugated to the personalities attempting to promote or block the reform as well as those sidelined by illness or tax evasion. It is a cautionary tale for all those who still believe the American government...

ISBN: 9781785073090 / Angielski / Miękka / 492 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

It's been a time when our country for one reason or another has constantly been travelling in the wrong direction. During this time organisations and establishments have continually hindered our progress even to the point where today we no longer rule our own country, to where others always seem to have the final say and that is unacceptable. There have been so many changes forced upon us by these incompetent organisations that have no thought for our country that I am...
