About this product
Product Information
This "Election Update" edition of Bessette/Pitney's AMERICAN GOVERNMENT AND POLITICS: DELIBERATION, DEMOCRACY AND CITIZENSHIP, is complete with 2010 election information. Like its previous edition, the text has three underlying principles: Citizenship, History and Democracy. Via two unique chapters -- Chapter 4: American Citizenship and Chapter 5: Civic Culture -- authors Joseph Bessette and John Pitney, Jr. examine the way that civic culture shapes the country and take a close look at civic responsibility. "Deliberative democracy" -- the concept that political systems work best when informed citizens and public officials deliberate to identify and promote the common good -- is considered throughout the text.

". . . it introduces the idea of deliberative democracy in the opening chapter, uses it as a framework for understanding American politics, and returns to the concept in subsequent chapters.

Second comes the accessible writing style." -- Michael Nojeim, Prairie View A/M University, "The organizing theme/framework is the #1 strength. Second comes the accessible writing style." --Michael Nojeim, Prairie View A/M University., "This text is unique as compared to many other American Government texts as it takes an all-encompassing view of how American politics really works, including the important role that citizens play in the political process. This text encourages students to think critically about our government and to develop an understanding of the world through comparisons of the American government and governments around the world." -- Julie Lester, Macon State College, ". . . it introduces the idea of deliberative democracy in the opening chapter, uses it as a framework for understanding American politics, and returns to the concept in subsequent chapters.
