Abstract

"American Politics: A Very Short Introduction" introduces the vital elements of American politics. Using an historical-institutional approach, it explains how the American political system is, and always has been, a work in progress -- one unfolding within, and also constantly updating, an eighteenth-century constitutional framework. It explores the issue of parties and polarization and surveys the basic institutions: the Presidency, Congress, the judicial branch, the unelected bureaucracy of the independent agencies, and state and local governments. It also deals with political communication, public opinion, voting and the boundaries of the electorate, and the politics of government steering of the economy. -- From publisher's description.

Abstract

Qu'il s'agisse de la reconnaissance des responsabilités de l'Etat dans la Shoah par J. Chirac ou de la pénalisation de la négation du génocide des Arméniens, les historiens subissent de plus en plus l'interventionnisme des politiques et l'instrumentalisation de leur travail. L'un d'eux démêle ici les questions qui se posent aujourd'hui, entre le droit, le politique et les exigences de l'opinion.

Today, politics is big business.

He traces the history of political consultants from its origins in the publicity experts and pollsters of the 1920s and 1930s to the strategists and media specialists of the 1970s who transformed political campaigns into a highly profitable business.
