Context can make all the difference. Take those milk crates on the front cover, for example. By themselves, they're just milk crates—but grab a few more, arrange them in a certain pattern: suddenly they represent the American flag. The next time you look at the cover, will you see the crates, or pieces of the flag above?
Government Matters seeks to put American Government in context for students. How did we evolve into the distinctly American democracy we are today? How is this government different from other forms of government? In short, why does it matter? By providing context for what you're learning, Government Matters gives reference points to situate you in course material, creating a more meaningful learning experience.
