The Challenge of Democracy (Book Only) by Kenneth Janda
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. Tensions between majoritarian and pluralist views of democracy across the political landscape examine how U.S. political institutions and outputs compare to those in other countries, highlighting the fragility of American democracy. This text is designed to help students succeed in their study of American politics and provide perspectives and insights that will connect them to the important and provocative political questions of our time. We weave together current events with fundamental challenges in central to democratic politics such as value conflicts between freedom and order or freedom and quality and what role majority rule should play in making decisions.Jeffrey M. Berry is John Richard Skuse Class of 1941 Professor of Political Science at Tufts University. His most recent book, The New Liberalism: The Rising Power of Citizen Groups (Brookings, 1999) won the Policy Studies Organization's 1999 best book award.
