Completely rewritten in the light of Bill Clinton's assumption of power in January 1993, the fourth edition of this textbook provides students with an accessible and readable introduction to the American political system. After covering the historical and constitutional background to US politics, the book deals in turn with the central institutions and processes - the Presidency, the Congress, the Supreme Court, parties and interest groups, the federal bureaucracy, the making of public policy and the electoral system.

Book Description Soft cover. Condition: Good. Reprinted with Revisions. Paperback. Small waterstain mark to top edge of front and back inside cover page. Small mark to back cover from removal of old label to back coper. The intention of this introduction is to give readers a basic grounding on which they can build. Each chapter combines an analysis of essentials, and illustrative and interpretative information on current trends and developments. The note-style presentation emphasises central points which can be explored further in the books listed at the end of each chapter. Special attention is paid to those features of American politics, such as primary elections and the role of Congress and the Supreme Court, which are sometimes puzzling to those more familiar with parliamentary systems. The material covered should be relevant to students studying for O and A level examinations in American Studies or Comparative Politics and as basic reading before commencing university courses in these subjects. 194 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
