Patterns in Politics: Readings in American Government
Patterns in Politics offers a balanced mix of historical documents on American politics, readings on American political history, and recent political data. This text is designed to frame questions about American Government within a broader context of how people in societies manage their relationships and resolve conflicts. A wealth of current and historical data on public opinion and political behaviors is utilized to give instructors the opportunity to develop a wide range of open- and closed-ended questions. They also facilitate critical thinking about changing patterns in American politics and government. The selected historical documents present a respectful view of the role religion and faith played in the founding period, in addition to providing unique insights into American political culture during this time.
Patterns in Politics examines a wide range of contemporary political topics, including political freedom, ideology, voting behavior, campaign contributions, and public opinion polling. Data source links are included to give both students and instructors access to the most recent sets of data as they become available. This text is geared toward introductory courses in American Government; it is suited for use in both the classroom and online courses.
