Political conflict in America[electronic resource] /Alan Ware. - 1st ed. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2011. - 1 online resource (xii, 214 p.)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

The Divisions in American Society -- Political Ideologies -- The Decentralization of America's Political Institutions -- The Party System -- Voters and the Managing of Conflict -- Careerism, Professional Politicians and Conflict -- Crises and the Future of American Politics.

There has been a high level of conflict in American politics in recent years. Massive disagreements over government policies, including health care, seem to have pitted one group of Americans against another. In addition, politicians in different parties now seem to dislike each other personally. This book explores how and why this style of politics developed. It argues that fundamental disagreements between Americans have been at the heart of its politics since the eighteenth century. In many ways American democracy is very different from democracy in other countries; these distinctive features have contributed to periods of bitterly contested politics throughout its history.
