商品簡介
Griffin analyzes claims that the US government is dysfunctional and needs to be altered, then presents his own views. He covers whether the government is dysfunctional; policy disasters and the constitutional order; from high trust to low trust; American constitutionalism, Western-style: trust and direct democracy; and pathways to constitutional reform. He argues that there has been a relative decline of trust in the ability of government institutions to serve the public well, and that people must create virtuous cycles that product both greater trust in government and more effective government.
