America Today: Political Theory and Practical Politics helps
students make connections between political theory and the real
world politics of 21st Century America. The readings are presented
from the perspective that while the parameters of modern
citizenship may have changed, the questions of the great political
theorists remain as salient as ever. The text presents a variety of
writings ranging from Plato's Republic to Friedrich von Hayek's A
Road to Serfdom. These works question the role of the federal
government and how it creates opportunities for citizens to live
the best possible lives. They also explore how these questions have
been responded to throughout history. In working through the
anthology, students will explore the nature of human beings, and
how people should live together to form a society that successfully
balances liberty and security. America Today is suited to courses
in political science, pre-law, and history. It can also serve as a
supplemental reader for classes in philosophy, sociology, and
interdisciplinary studies.
