Understanding American Government and Politics covers the subject in a clear, accessible, and easy-to-understand style. After setting American politics in its social and economic context, the book provides an introduction to and analysis of the American Constitution and the distribution of power within the federal system. It considers the Executive Branch, the legislature, and the judiciary. It evaluates the role of American political parties and lobbyist groups, and the nature of elections, electioneering, and voting behavior. Coverage is given to the Clinton presidency, the 2000 election and its complicated aftermath, the early days of the Bush administration and the terrorist attacks of 9/11/01.
