Packed with all-new examples, art and data, Janda/Berry/Goldman/Schildkraut/Manna's THE CHALLENGE OF DEMOCRACY: AMERICAN GOVERNMENT IN GLOBAL POLITICS, 16th Edition, explores how the clash of values surrounding freedom, order and equality characterize U.S. politics. The authors vividly illustrate tensions between majoritarian and pluralist views of democracy across the political landscape and examine how political institutions and outputs compare to those in other countries. Extensively updated, this revision highlights the fragility of American democracy as well as the importance of norms in shaping how provisions of the Constitution work in practice.
