Pennsylvania Government and Politics gives readers an overview of
the government institutions and the politics of the keystone state.
It explains how Pennsylvania compares to other states on a wide
variety of demographic and economic areas, and examines detailed
statistics relating to election results and political trends, with
an emphasis on the current party realignment. This comprehensive
coverage takes over where historical examinations end by providing
specific contemporary data and detailed discussion of the state's
political system. The book opens with a profile of Pennsylvania and
its rich historical and political heritage. Subsequent chapters are
devoted to the history of political parties and elections in the
state, the Pennsylvania State Constitution, as well as the three
institutions of government: the General Assembly, the executive
branch, and the judiciary. The book closes with a chapter on local
governments in Pennsylvania. Designed to blend engaging exposition
with statistical information that enhances the readers' insights
into both institutions and events, Pennsylvania Government and
Politics is an ideal text for courses relating to Pennsylvania
government and history within the state. It can also be used as a
supplemental text for introductory courses in American national
government and state and local government. Its tone and style make
the book appealing to any lay reader with an interest in the topic.
