Some of these essays are of very recent vintage. See Chapter 6, about defending American domestic liberties during a time of war. The arguments revolve around what measures are necessary to fight terrorism on the home front.

Other chapters also offer pro and con on other issues. Like how polarised is the American electorate? Something quite timely in this year of 2008. Another issue is whether the judiciary is or should be activist in interpreting the constitution.

Lots to get you thinking.

Designed to accompany any American Government text, this engaging reader features a debate-style format that includes two readings--each representing opposing viewpoints--per chapter. The unique format and current content give this book a distinctive advantage over other readers. The Sixth Edition incorporates up-to-date chapter introductions and new debates, for a fresh look at the hot-button issues in modern American government.
