Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the extent to which American schools and universities teach practical political engagement and foster informed citizenship. The author utilizes survey responses from hundreds of colleges to assess the prevalence and quality of civics education. Findings show that while most undergraduates receive some exposure to American government, this instruction often lacks depth, particularly in imparting understanding of political processes and practical skills for citizen participation. The book argues that this deficiency hinders effective democratic engagement, and proposes that political science curricula be reviewed to ensure adequate emphasis on preparing students for active roles in the political system. By highlighting the current shortcomings and offering solutions, this book contributes to the ongoing discussion on the role of higher education in promoting civic responsibility and the vitality of American democracy.
