Voices of dissent

Voices of Dissent offers critical essays on American politics that broaden the frame of debate from mainstream liberalism and conservatism to a fundamental questioning of the underlying structure of political and economic power. The rich and varied array of scholarly and journalistic articles includes such authors as Noam Chomsky, Michael Moore, Charles Lindblom, Howard Zinn, Frances Fox Piven, Holly Sklar, Adolph Reed, Katha Pollitt, and Ralph Nader. Grover and Peschek have chosen engaging articles that facilitate students' critical thinking while exposing them to an analysis that explains how the real world of political and economic power actually works.
