About this product

Product Information

GATEWAYS TO DEMOCRACY continues with its framework of "gateways" to help readers conceptualize participation and civic engagement--even democracy itself--with reference to how individuals access the political system. This approach helps readers better see the relevance of government in their lives. GATEWAYS uniquely incorporates policy into a section at the end of each chapter, helping readers better understand the connection between public opinion, policy-making and how public policy applies to their lives. The second edition, complete with 2012 election updates, emphasizes critical thinking by clearly outlining learning outcomes and enhancing learning with self-assessment "Checkpoints" and a clear chapter study plan. Chapters in this ESSENTIALS version are condensed to accommodate a shorter format but preserve the integrity of the text's hallmarks.

Providing learning objectives, checkpoints, and learning outcomes for students helps their ability to focus studying efforts. This is especially important with introductory courses. I believe these are valuable tools for students., Gateways to Democracy is well written, balanced, and offers an effective blend of theory, historical analysis, and specific case studies. The tensions between 'gates' and 'gateways' allows my students to consider the opportunities that democracy in America has provided while challenging them to wrestle with the contemporary reality of shortcomings and inequity within the nation's political processes. End-of-chapter questions, summaries, and lists of important terms also ensure that my students have all the resources they need to make the most of this excellent text., 1. Gateways to American Democracy: Judging the Democratic Experiment.2. The Constitution.3. Federalism.4. Civil Liberties.5. Civil Rights.6. Public Opinion.7. The News Media and the Internet.8. Interest Groups.9. Political Parties.10. Elections, Campaigns, and Voting.11. Congress.12. The Presidency.13. The Bureaucracy.14. The Judiciary., This looks like a solid improvement on an already very polished and attractive text. The tools are there for a winning textbook and a supportive resource in teaching American Government.
