Government by the People (AP Edition) (2014 Elections and Updates Edition) (25th Edition)
by Paul C. Light David B. Magleby Christine L. Nemacheck<p>As the title of our book suggests, we view the idea of government by the people as a defining element of American politics and government. From the Mayflower Compact to the Declaration of Independence to the expansion of rights and liberties to more and more citizens in the last century, we have expanded on the idea of self-government. Too often, Americans take their basic rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for granted. But these rights were guaranteed neither by those who wrote our Constitution nor by the citizens who have worked, one generation after another, to expand these rights and set our government's course. Rather, government by the people today depends on citizens who are informed and involved in the decisions and processes of our constitutional democracy. <p>We have written this book with the aim of informing you about why you have a stake in our government and how you can become involved. The Framers of our Constitution warned us that we must always safeguard our rights, liberties, and political institutions. But we cannot do so without first understanding the basic rules of the game set by the Constitution. We must see the presidency, Congress, the federal bureaucracy, and the Supreme Court not as a remote "federal government" but as institutions that affect each of us every single day. Government by the people depends on people informing themselves and participating. It is not something that can be outsourced or that a generation can decide to take a pass on.</p>

This fourteenth edition of Government in America continues to frame its content with a public policy approach to government in the United States.
