Dalton is one of a small number of people who can present research that provides just enough of a comparative perspective on American problems while also presenting a deeper insight about what is unique about American politics. The Good Citizenis an accessible and optimistic work that fits in well with discussions of political polarization and studies of how younger adults engage in politics., Dalton is one of a small number of people who can present research that provides just enough of a comparative perspective on American problems while also presenting a deeper insight about what is unique about American politics. The Good Citizen is an accessible and optimistic work that fits in well with discussions of political polarization and studies of how younger adults engage in politics., The Good Citizenis a useful introduction to political science and the social science method for students interested in learning about the diversity of approaches to the study of American politics. The book keeps its focus on civic participation, which is critically important today., The Good Citizenis the perfect introduction to my class. It focuses on younger people, which gives it a direct relevance to my students. The basic argument of the book is very compelling, and was an important qualifier on the normal 'youth bashing' that can often happen with regard to millennials and politics. I highly recommend this book. It will not disappoint.

Revised edition
Synopsis
The Good Citizen uses a new 2014 national opinion survey to describe how Americans' views of what it means to be a good citizen is changing. Russell J. Dalton shows that contrary to conventional wisdom, younger generations are more politically engaged, more politically tolerant, and more supportive of social justice; the young are creating new norms of citizenship that are leading to a renaissance of democratic participation. The new edition of this groundbreaking work will reshape the way we think about the American public, American youth, and the prospects for contemporary democracy. It describes Americans' changing citizenship norms, the emergence of the Millennial Generation, how the Internet is changing participation patterns, and a new statistical primer to help students understand the survey findings., "The Good Citizen is the perfect introduction to my class.

The basic argument of the book is very compelling, and was an important qualifier on the normal 'youth bashing' that can often happen with regard to millennials and politics. I highly recommend this book. It will not disappoint." --Michael Franz, Bowdoin College The Good Citizen uses a new 2014 national public opinion survey to describe how Americans' views of what it means to be a good citizen is changing. Contrary to conventional wisdom, younger generations are more politically engaged, are more politically tolerant, are supportive of a more active government, have stronger democratic ideals, and are more supportive of social justice. The young are creating new norms of citizenship that are leading to a renaissance of democratic participation. The new edition of this groundbreaking work will reshape the way we think about the American public, American youth, and the prospects for contemporary democracy. It uses evidence from the 2004 and 2014 General Social Surveys to describe Americans' changing citizenship norms, the emergence of the Millennial Generation, how the Internet is changing participation patterns, and a new statistical primer to help students understand the survey findings., The author uses current American public opinion surveys to show how Americans are changing their views on what good citizenship means

    I ordered the same product from another seller earlier & UPS delivered it broken in dozens of pieces. I told this seller that before they shipped the tray & they packaged it so well that I laughed when I opened it. No breakage, no chips, perfect condition. They even had the original box the tray came in! The price was more than fair, the tray was exactly as described including the measurements & shipping was really fast. Overall I am very pleased with this seller & the product I ordered.
