Description of How America�s Political Parties Change (and How They Don�t)
Review �Michael Barone, who knows more than anyone else about American politics, punctures myths for a living. This slender volume, which is as sharp as a stiletto, demonstrates that America�s political parties are remarkably?�astonishingly� is his word?both durable and adaptable.� ?George F. Will �This book could not be more timely, and Michael Barone, whose knowledge of American politics is beyond encyclopedic, is the man to write it. Taking us from the founding through the 2016 election, Barone�s calm voice lifts us above the fray and shows us where we stand and how we got here.� ?Charles Murray, Hayek Emeritus Scholar, American Enterprise Institute �No one has been around the political wars longer, or observed with greater perceptiveness, than Michael Barone. In this illuminating study, he makes a powerful case that, for all the hysteria tied to politics today, our two major parties, among the world�s most ancient, remain remarkably resilient. For most of our history, our binary political culture has been shape-shifting as alliances, constituencies, and programs change, yet there is far more continuity in the system than most of today�s political journalists, lacking Barone�s erudition and depth of knowledge, can comprehend. This is a necessary book for anyone trying to understand what has made our system, for all its faults, work over so many generations.� ?Joel Kotkin, Presidential Fellow, Chapman University, and author of The Human City and The Coming of Neo-Feudalism Read more About the Author Michael Barone is Senior Political Analyst for the Washington Examiner and a Resident Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute.
