内容説明
The Contract with America, the Oklahoma City bombing, the budget shutdown in Washington, the Million Man March - isolated events, or is there some connecting thread? This book argues these events are linked by public anger which will not vanish until the American people as a polity acknowledge it and harness its power. How to tap into this pervasive political anger and release its creative energy without being swept away by its force is a dilemma of the 1990s for government leaders and citizens alike. The book outlines the history, causes and consequences of anger in American politics today, and offers solutions to problems such as economic uncertainty, cultural divisiveness and political disintegration. The solutions suggested incorporate a renewed sense of community, enhanced political access, and responsive rather than reactive government.
