Keeping in mind that domestic politics receives greater attention than foreign policy in post-Cold War America, authors Rai, Walsh, and Best have included in this volume chapters on the most crucial issues that will face the country in the early 21st century.
The economy in the postindustrial age, health care, education, the environment, immigration, the electronic revolution, the role of women in politics, and defense posture in a world with reduced tensions are discussed by experts in their respective fields.
The text employs a political economy approach in the discussion of every major issue, and wherever appropriate, pays particular attention to the following: historical background; U.S. interests, challenges, and constraints; policy options; the current debate; and recommendations for the 21st century.
Written in a style accessible to undergraduate students, America in the 21st Century provides an overview of U.S. domestic politics and considers the question of America's will to resolve its major problems.
