Two Majorities The Issue Context of Modern American Politics

In 'The Two Majorities' Byron Shafer and William Claggett offer groundbreaking political analysis that resolves many of the seeming contradictions in the contemporary American political scene. Drawing on an unusually large sample of all Americans, taken by the Gallup organization, Shafer and Claggett argue that the recent turbulence in American politics is in some ways superficial. Below the surface, they contend, the political preferences of the American people remain remarkably stable.Shafer, Byron E. is the author of 'Two Majorities The Issue Context of Modern American Politics', published 1995 under ISBN 9780801850196 and ISBN 0801850193.
