| Summary |
A follow-up to On common ground: civics and government in action. Framework for Democracy probes concepts that are basic to an introductory course in American government in the wake of the September 11 tragedy. 26-half-hour videos provide a comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of core topics. Compelling interviews and case studies on a range of issues, both historic and contemporary, encourage learners to think about and debate the many questions and challenges confronting our democracy. |
