Overview

en*dur*ing adj. 1. long-lasting; continuing; durable. 2. having forbearance; patient. Does it seem as though Congress and the race for the Presidency are more combative and paralyzed than ever before? Is the new media revolution really new? Will federalism survive the polarizing immigration debate? The binding message of THE ENDURING DEMOCRACY is "the more things change, the more they stay the same." Authors Ken Dautrich and David Yalof remind readers that history repeats itself--that the huge debates and issues of our time have played out in earlier times, yet we are still here. . . due to the "enduring" nature of American democracy. Placing American government in a historical perspective provides students with an understanding of how our democracy has endured over time and helps them gain greater appreciation for both its flaws and successes. This new edition is shorter, more focused on the "Then & Now" narrative in each chapter, and contains more critical thinking and quizzing designed to help students better grasp the relevance of the subject.
