  This book answers questions about the American political and social landscape over the last 50 years. America's role in the world continues to be the subject of intense controversy at home and abroad. Big government - now an undisputed fact of American life - is also hard to reconcile with the deep economic individualism that is characteristic of American ideology. Finally, the United States has become increasingly socially fragmented over recent years, as the old class, regional and ethnic divisions have been largely replaced by a much more complex and fluid system of social relations. With a few exceptions, American political institutions have found it hard to adapt to these changes and the author demonstrates why in his guide to the country's political system.
