Janda/Berry/Goldman/Schildkraut/Manna's THE CHALLENGE OF DEMOCRACY: AMERICAN GOVERNMENT IN GLOBAL POLITICS, 15th edition, explores how the clash of values surrounding freedom, order and equality characterize U.S. politics. It illustrates tensions between majoritarian and pluralist views of democracy across the political landscape and examines how political institutions and outputs compare to those in other countries. Extensively updated -- including coverage of the Trump administration, COVID-19 pandemic and 2020 election -- the text is packed with all-new examples, art and data. In addition, the revision makes a deliberate effort to highlight the fragility of American democracy, the importance of norms in shaping how provisions of the Constitution work in practice and the ways that white supremacy have influenced political outcomes. Also available, the MindTap digital learning solution.
