Synopsis:

PRACTICING TEXAS POLITICS, 2017-2018 Edition, analyzes the practices and policies of the Lone Star State and gives you a realistic introduction to how public-policy making is conducted there. This edition includes a special focus on the role of a growing Latino population in all aspects of Texas government, the impact of the 2016 elections on the state, and the effect of a floundering oil and gas industry on state finances. MindTap Political Science, Cengage Learning's fully online learning solution, is an option with this text. With MindTap, everything is in one place -- the eBook, activities, flashcards, quizzes, dictionary, and more -- making study time more effective and efficient.
