Perspectives on Minnesota Government and Politics 6th edition
Steve Hoffman, Angela High-Pippert, and Kay Wolsborn, editors
This is an excellent addition to a series that stretches back to the first edition in 1977. To view the cover page and table of contents click here.
Highlights of this edition include:
substantial reference to the regional aspects of state politics and policy while maintaining the Minnesota focus;
short commentaries and personal reflections designed to stimulate classroom discussion;
additional study sources, i.e., readings, texts, websites, etc., that can be used for research and instructional purposes listed at the end of each chapter; and
two “policy forums” that feature a series of 1500 to 2000 words essays on various aspects of energy and agricultural policy in the state. Each of the essays is authored by a policy advocate with years of experience in the field.
We hope that you will seriously consider adopting the text for your classes. Please call or write if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Professor Steve Hoffman
