American Government: Historical, Popular, and Global Perspectives

By: Kenneth Dautrich,David Yalof

AMERICAN GOVERNMENT: HISTORICAL, POPULAR, AND GLOBAL PERSPECTIVES, Second Edition broadens students’ understanding of American government by encouraging them to examine the subject matter through three distinct perspectives. Organized institutions first, Dautrich/Yalof offers a detailed overview of the rich historical evolution of American government, a thorough examination of the public’s influence on government and public policy, and a fresh look at American government from the perspective of others around the world. The enhanced student focus of the second edition is evident in the new learning objectives, critical thinking questions, and the new Your Perspective feature, which illustrates the many ways students have and can become involved in American government. With its three vivid perspectives and updated coverage and analysis through the 2010 midterm elections, Dautrich/Yalof is an exciting, student-friendly text that offers students a new way to understand and appreciate American government. This book uniquely addresses the concepts of this course through the following perspectives. Historical Perspective-A look at how course concepts relate events in the past to current events. Through such a view, students gain an understanding that the political process is sound, has worked for years and will work for years to come. Popular Perspective- Students who are provided a way to take the political winds of change associated with popular opinion are able to understand why certain events transpired the way they did and gain a deeper appreciation for the nuances of the American political system. The Political Perspective provides them with such an experience. Global Perspective- Not to be confused with a comparative analysis, the Global perspectives allow an instructor to demonstrate how the US political system is viewed by the media, political elites and the public in other parts of the world.

How the News Media Fail American Voters

Causes, Consequences, and Remedies

By: Kenneth Dautrich,Thomas H. Hartley

It is often noted that the public is frustrated with the news media. But what do American voters really think about how the media present political information? While studies have examined how the news shapes opinions as well as what people respond to and remember, this is the first book to provide an in-depth analysis of how voters use and evaluate the news media in political elections and the impact these trends have on their use of the news. Kenneth Dautrich and Thomas H. Hartley performed a four-wave national panel survey of voters during the 1996 presidential campaign. They found that although voters are profoundly dissatisfied with the usefulness of news in helping them make decisions, they are unlikely to stop using the news media or switch media (from network news to public broadcasting, for instance). Thus the media have little incentive to adjust to the needs or wishes of voters. Here is an important contribution to the debate about the responsibilities of the news media raging among pundits and policymakers.

The Future of the First Amendment

The Future of the First Amendment

The Digital Media, Civic Education, and Free Expression Rights in America's High Schools

By: Kenneth Dautrich,David Alistair Yalof,Mark Hugo López

Findings from the high-profile John S. and James L. Knight Foundation-sponsored surveys of over 100,000 high school students in 2004 and 2006 provided a wake-up call to those interested in preserving the future of free expression rights in America. These studies documented the current lack of appreciation for free expression rights among the nation's high school students, and thus raised serious questions about the vitality of those rights as this generation reaches adulthood. In The Future of the First Amendment, the scholars who conducted the Knight studies identify a number of important connections and relationships that education reformers should account for as they seek to raise the status of the First Amendment among the nation's youth. This book documents and explores the ramifications of First Amendment education and student media activities--both traditional and digital--on student support for free expression rights. Linking these curricular and extra-curricular activities to the next generation's tolerance for free expression rights, it provides guidance to educators and policy-makers on methods of improving the next generation's appreciation for these rights which are so central to the health of American democracy.
