Auts. Bruce Miroff...[et.al]. "I believe that the "elite vs. popular democracy" framework of this text is good for several reasons. First, it gives students a way to think about political information. This helps their retention of the information and promotes critical thinking. Second, they can apply this framework to their thinking about current events after the class is over. This makes the information they learned more relevant. Finally, it gives students a new perspective on politics that they have never had before, which makes the material more interesting and exciting. It fits well with the way I teach, as I tend to emphasize questions of 'who gets what and why, ' and this framework addresses that."
