The 2016 U.S. presidential election revealed a nation deeply
divided and in flux. This volume provides urgently needed insights
into American politics and culture during this period of
uncertainty. The contributions answer the election's key mysteries,
such as how contemporary Christian evangelicals identified in the
unrepentant candidate Trump a hero to their cause, and how working
class and economically struggling Americans saw in the rich and
ostentatious candidate a champion of their plight. The chapters
explain how irrationality is creeping into political participation,
and demonstrate how media developments enabled a phenomenon like
"fake news" to influence the election. At this polarized and
contentious moment, this volume satisfies the urgent need for works
that carefully analyze the forces and tensions tearing at the
American social fabric. Simultaneously intellectual and accessible,
this volume is designed to illuminate the 2016 U.S. presidential
election and its aftermath for academics and students of politics
alike.
