Paperback. Zustand: Good. One of our most prescient political observers provides a sobering account of how pitched battles over scarce resources will increasingly define American politics in the coming years-and how we might avoid, or at least mitigate, the damage from these ideological and economic battles. In a matter of just three years, a bitter struggle over limited resources has enveloped political discourse at every level in the United States. Fights between haves and have-nots over health care, unemployment benefits, funding for mortgage write-downs, economic stimulus legislation-and, at the local level, over cuts in police protection, garbage collection, and in the number of teachers-have dominated the debate. Elected officials are being forced to make zero-sum choices-or worse, choices with no winners. Resource competition between Democrats and Republicans has left each side determined to protect what it has at the expense of the other. The major issues of the next few years-long-term deficit reduction; entitlement reform, notably of Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid; major cuts in defense spending; and difficulty in financing a continuation of American international involvement-suggest that your-gain-is-my-loss politics will inevitably intensify.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The rise of the presidential wing of the Republican party over the past generation has been driven by the overlapping issues of race and taxes. The Republicans have capitalized on these two issues, capturing the White House in five of the last six elections. May be the best account ever written on why the Democrats no longer dominate American party politics. . . .--Judy Woodruff.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Traces the rise of the American Republican party to its current, almost unassailable position in presidential elections.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good.

In this book, Thomas Edsall, a Capitol Hill reporter for the Washington Post, examines the new power centers in the Democratic and Republican parties, the corporate lobbying community, and organized labor, and explores the changes in United States politics that have led to the shift in economic policy under Reagan administration.…

His happiness is delivered to him through a tube or an electronic connection.
