Böcker i Contemporary American Politics-serien

Examining the effects of the Internet on American politics, this book reveals its potential as a tool for empowering people to challenge existing power structures. However, the authors show how the American political system tends to normalize political activity, and thus the Internet's vast subversive potential could be lost, rendering it just another purveyor of ignored information.

The motivations for pursuing a career in electoral politics in the United States are examined in this fascinating insight into the development of political careers, from local elections through to the Presidency.
