While frustration with various aspects of American democracy abound
in the United States, there is little agreement over-or even
understanding of-what kinds of changes would make the system more
effective and increase political participation. Matthew J. Streb
sheds much-needed light on all the major concerns of the electoral
process in the thoroughly revised third edition of this timely book
on improving American electoral democracy. This critical
examination of the rules and institutional arrangements that shape
the American electoral process analyzes the major debates that
embroil scholars and reformers on subjects ranging from the number
of elections we hold and the use of nonpartisan elections, to the
presidential nominating process and campaign finance laws.
Ultimately, Streb argues for a less burdensome democracy, a
democracy in which citizens can participate more easily in
transparent, competitive elections. This book is designed to get
students of elections and American political institutions to think
critically about what it means to be democratic, and how democratic
the United States really is. Part of the Controversies in Electoral
Democracy and Representation series, edited by Matthew J. Streb.
