More copies of this ISBN:American Political Rhetoric: A Reader: A Readerby Robert Martin Schaefer
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:American Political Rhetoric is the only reader designed for introductory classes in American politics and government that is both focused on fundamental political principles and includes nothing but classic examples of our nation's political rhetoric. The fifth edition of this successful text is updated throughout, including pieces from the George W. Bush administration, and expands coverage of foreign policy, race, gender, and the President and Congress. Book News Annotation:Lawler (government and international studies, Berry College) and
Schaefer (political science, U. of Mobile) present a reader of US
political rhetoric spanning from the Declaration of Independence to
speeches delivered by President George W. Bush. The 116 readings are
grouped under the thematic headings of founding principles,
federalism, president and congress, judiciary, constitutional
preservation and political change, civil rights and race, civil
rights and gender, and foreign policy. The readings are predominantly
drawn from the Federalist Papers, presidential addresses, and Supreme
Court decisions, but a few examples of rhetoric from political
dissenters are included as well, such as the 1962 Port Huron
Statement of the Students for a Democratic Society and speeches by
Martin Luther King, Jr.
