Description

Lone Star Politics delves into the states rich political tradition by exploring how myth often clashes with the reality of everyday governance. Explaining who gets what and how within the state, this Nacogdoches author team provides an engaging narrative on the evolution of Texas politics, utilizing the comparative method to set Texas in context with other states constitutions, policymaking, electoral practices, and institutions. Along with chapter objectives and critical thinking questions to reinforce learning and encourage analysis, students come away with a strong understanding of Texas government and the needed foundation to assess the states political landscape. The books full-color photos, tables, charts, and maps leap off the page in vivid detail and help students focus on key takeaways.
