  • "This introduction to the study of politics highlights the ideas of key thinkers to illustrate how our whole lives are politically conditioned and subject to governance. Looking across every major component of the discipline ;at law and institutions, markets and power, and culture and identity this book encourages students to engage in critical thinking by evaluating arguments for their internal coherence and explanatory power. In addition, it helps them learn to think holistically as it demonstrates that none of these domains can be adequately understood without analyzing the other two. Indeed, the better we understand the connections between these three major areas of politics and governance, the better we understand politics as a whole. -- Product Description."

  • "This introduction to the study of politics explores the multiple meanings of ""governance"" as well as the several senses of what it means to be a ""subject."" It takes the reader on a journey through and across the domains of law and institutions, markets and power, and culture and identity, and shows how the understanding of any one of these domains demands an understanding of them all. The path through these related regions is marked by regular encounters with leading and competing thinkers-from the expected, such as James Madison, Robert Dahl, Michel Foucault, and Adam Smith, to the unexpe."
