American Government: Roots and Reform helps you view the issues facing the US today through a historical lens. By presenting coverage of the origins of American government in tandem with material on contemporary political structures and behaviors, authors Karen O’Connor and Larry Sabato show how what happened in the past can be used to understand what measures should be taken in the future.
The 15th Edition offers coverage of the 2024 presidential and congressional elections, recent Supreme Court decisions and more. Fresh opening vignettes and key examples strengthen the authors’ historical approach. And new Patterns of Polarization features in each chapter highlight major contemporary concerns in American politics and government.
