This edited volume investigates America's transforming democracy as
it faces the challenges and developments of the 21st
century-challenges and developments that have brought deep
dissatisfaction, cultural fragmentation, and economic indignation.
Although political power remains in the hands of the people, a
fundamental incapability to compromise has locked policymakers in a
permanent stalemate. In this legislative paralysis, grassroots
movements build more and more momentum amidst regular protests and
civil disobedience. This new political vigor and dynamism is
dualistic, portending either a future of falsehoods and
authoritarianism or a more empowering and direct form of democracy.
This book ultimately seeks to understand how the US government is
frantically adjusting to these sharp cultural, technological, and
economic changes.
