The Enduring Democracy (Book Only)
en*dur*ing adj. 1. long-lasting; continuing; durable. 2. having forbearance; patient. Does it seem as though Congress and the race for the Presidency are more combative and paralyzed than ever before? Is the new media revolution really new? Will federalism survive the polarizing immigration debate? The binding message of THE ENDURING DEMOCRACY is "the more things change, the more they stay the same." Authors Ken Dautrich and David Yalof remind readers that history repeats itself--that the huge debates and issues of our time have played out in earlier times, yet we are still here. . . due to the "enduring" nature of American democracy. Placing American government in a historical perspective provides students with an understanding of how our democracy has endured over time and helps them gain greater appreciation for both its flaws and successes. This new edition is shorter, more focused on the "Then & Now" narrative in each chapter, and contains more critical thinking and quizzing designed to help students better grasp the relevance of the subject.
Selected Federalist Papers
Almost half of the original 85 brilliant essays, comprising a masterful exposition and defense of the proposed federal system of government and of the Constitution's system of checks and balances.
The Averaged American
supports the death penalty, that half of all marriages end in divorce, and that four out of five prefer a particular brand of toothpaste. But remarkably, such data--now woven into our social fabric--became common currency only in the last century. With a bold and sophisticated analysis, Sarah Igo demonstrates the power of scientific surveys to shape Americans' sense of themselves as individuals, members of communities, and citizens of a nation.
Risks, Reputations, and Rewards
Risks, Reputations, and Rewards looks at a variety of interrelated questions about contingency fee legal practice: What is the nature of the contingency fees that lawyers charge? How do lawyers get and screen potential cases? How do contingency fee lawyers interact with their clients and opponents? What is involved in settling these cases? What types of returns do contingency fee cases produce? And what role does reputation play in contingency fee practice? The author argues that to be successful, contingency fee lawyers must generate a portfolio of cases, similar to an investment portfolio with its associated risk. This has a significant impact on how contingency fee lawyers obtain and select cases, manage their work, and deal with the pressures that arise in settling cases. More important, understanding the work of contingency fee lawyers in terms of an ongoing practice rather than in terms of individual cases mitigates some of the significant conflicts that may exist between lawyers and clients.
