Extraordinary Politics: How Protest and Dissent Are Changing American Democracy (Transforming American Politics)

Rating:
Summary: A guide for our times
Review: Euchner's latest work explores how protest works -- and what a powerful impact it has had on the American system in the past generation. If you care about the profound and often perverse impact of "outsider" politics on the American system, this is the book to read. It covers everything from A to Z -- which could be interpreted as its main flaw, because it can be a tad overwhelming. Overall, though, this is must-reading for understanding the careening of the American polity.
