Paperback. Zustand: Good. The most comprehensive and up-to-date account of immigration policymaking available, this text presents a detailed account of the move from consensus to controversy regarding immigration policy between the mid-1960's to the late 1990's. Using raw data, interviews with public figures, and a broad understanding of the subject, authors Gimpel and Edwards explore the factors that influence perceptions about immigrants and their place in American society.More than any other text, this volume puts policymakers at the center of the immigration policy discussion. Students get to know the key members of Congress and what they did to affect the population composition of the nation, thereby learning that political outcomes are not the result of impersonal forces but of decisions made by key individuals steeped in the controversy that now surrounds immigration policy.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. Scholars across several social science disciplines have indicated that the behavior described by the term ""civic engagement"" is girded by a set of attitudes that show knowledge about, and positive evaluations of, government and politics. Drawing on extensive interviews with high school students from a variety of socioeconomic backgrounds, Cultivating Democracy examines the sources of those attitudes, including individual characteristics, and the qualities of local environments that shape the experiences of late adolescence.The authors gathered data on adolescent attitudes by interviewing students in a wide variety of locations, from Baltimore's inner city and suburbs to the most affluent communities in Montgomery County, Maryland. Focusing initially on attitudes toward ethnic diversity and immigration, the authors expanded their focus to the political socialization of young people, including patriotism and political knowledge and participation.The authors demonstrate how political socialization is shaped through the social messages presented to citizens by others. According to Gimpel, Lay, and Schuknecht, while formal education as a means of socializing youth is critically important, other useful means for communicating positive socializing messages, through political parties, elections, and the media, have been ignored. They recommend compensatory strategies to promote civic engagement among those who are at risk to be nonparticipants.…

Yet at the dawn of the new century these local and regional movements are still poorly understood. How can we account for persistent political regionalism and the sectional changes that have radically altered the nation's political landscape, from the Sun Belt to the Rust Belt 'Patchwork Nation' retrieves this lost knowledge, restoring geography to its central role in our nation's political behavior.…
