Book Synopsis The Emerging Democratic Majority by : John B. Judis
Download or read book The Emerging Democratic Majority written by John B. Judis. This book was released on 2004-02-10. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ONE OF THE ECONOMIST'S BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR AND A WINNER OF THE WASHINGTON MONTHLY'S ANNUAL POLITICAL BOOK AWARD Political experts John B. Judis and Ruy Teixeira convincingly use hard data -- demographic, geographic, economic, and political -- to forecast the dawn of a new progressive era. In the 1960s, Kevin Phillips, battling conventional wisdom, correctly foretold the dawn of a new conservative era. His book, The Emerging Republican Majority, became an indispensable guide for all those attempting to understand political change through the 1970s and 1980s. At the beginning of the twenty-first century, with the country in Republican hands, The Emerging Democratic Majority is the indispensable guide to this era. In five well-researched chapters and a new afterword covering the 2002 elections, Judis and Teixeira show how the most dynamic and fastest-growing areas of the country are cultivating a new wave of Democratic voters who embrace what the authors call "progressive centrism" and take umbrage at Republican demands to privatize social security, ban abortion, and cut back environmental regulations. As the GOP continues to be dominated by neoconservatives, the religious right, and corporate influence, this is an essential volume for all those discontented with their narrow agenda -- and a clarion call for a new political order.

Book Synopsis Majority of One by : George W. Scott
Download or read book Majority of One written by George W. Scott. This book was released on 2010. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praise for A Majority of One: "By far the best description of a state legislature's real operation in print from a legislator who knew what was happening and why" Slade Gorton (R) Former and Majority Leader Washington State House of Representatives, Washington State Attorney General and U.S. Senator "Senator George Scott has provided us with a warm, insightful appreciation of the legislative process that few outsiders can offer. This is a must read for students of state government" Phil Talmadge (D) Former Washington State Senator and State Supreme Court Justice. "Legislative leaders are activists. George Scott is also a trained historian. Majority is a unique, inclusive insider's firsthand look at legislating, documented in depth. It is the place to start for students of the process, campaigners, legislators and those who care about politics" Jeannette Hayner (R) Former Member of the House. Minority, and Majority Leader, Washington State Senate. "Anyone who cares about representative government must read this book. George Scott captures the essence of legislative action with the knowledge only an insider can bring. He does it with perception, wit and humor." Daniel J. Evans (R) Former State House Majority Leader, Governor, and U.S. Senator. "Rarely, and I am tempted to say never, do we find an insider's political savvy combined with the scholarly analysis that George Scott devotes to A Majority of One. Scott is unmatched in his command of the voluminous archival source materials involved here and his use of firsthand experience in weaving them into an absorbing account. This book is a practical guide for understanding the grassroots politics and placing these practices in the bigger picture of local, state, and national affairs. A Majority of One is a must read for both the concerned citizen and the political pro." David H. Stratton Professor Emeritus of History Washington State University.
