Beschreibung
In Texas, myth often clashes with the reality of everyday government. Explore the state's rich political tradition and modern transformation with Lone Star Politics. Often considered the gold standard, Lone Star Politics provides students with a comprehensive overview of the material while breathing life back into the study of Texas politics. Utilizing a comparative approach, the authors set Texas in context with other states' constitutions, policymaking, electoral practices, and institutions as they delve into the evolution of its politics. This gives students a strong sense of why Texas Government is the way it is, how it works, and just how unique Texas is among its fellow states. The highly anticipated Ninth Edition includes a brand-new chapter on Texas Media, along with the "e;tried and true"e; updates in every chapter that highlight the push-pull relationship between the state, federal, and local governments.
