Excerpt from Everyday Civics: Community, State, and Nation In a country governed by the people, with free schools maintained to train its citizens, why has not the study of civics assumed far greater importance? Possibly one answer is to be found in the fact that civics is a subject not easily presented to young students. Government is something that we all recognize. We feel its presence, but we find it hard to define. The author agrees with those who say that it is impossible to teach citizenship from a book, but he is convinced that a book may suggest interesting possibilities and provide material that will supplement the efforts of the most energetic and enthusiastic teacher. The business of government must never be thought of as an isolated thing. It is a vital part of the life of every community and is a constantly changing and growing process, changing and developing as the people change and get new points of view. The teacher who keeps this in mind will not attempt to give his pupils the idea that our government has no imperfections. He will, on the other hand, seek to stimulate in them an appreciation of the duty of intelligent, constructive participation on the part of every American citizen. He will try to make them feel that they have a definite responsibility as creative factors in our social life. For the past five years, the author has been working out courses of study, endeavoring to find the type of work that appeals to children at the adolescent period of their school life. Ideas that have stood the test of the classroom have found expression in the following pages. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Increasingly a spectator sport, electoral politics have become bitterly polarized by professional consultants and lobbyists and have been boiled down to the distributive mantra of "who gets what." In Everyday Politics, Harry Boyte transcends partisan politics to offer an alternative. He demonstrates how community-rooted activities reconnect citizens to engaged, responsible public life, and not just on election day but throughout the year. Boyte demonstrates that this type of activism has a rich history and strong philosophical foundation. It rests on the stubborn faith that the talents and insights of ordinary citizens--from nursery school to nursing home--are crucial elements in public life. Drawing on concrete examples of successful public work projects accomplished by diverse groups of people across the nation, Boyte demonstrates how citizens can master essential political skills, such as understanding issues in public terms, mapping complex issues of institutional power to create alliances, raising funds, communicating, and negotiating across lines of difference. He describes how these skills can be used to address the larger challenges of our time, thereby advancing a renewed vision of democratic society and freedom in the twenty-first century.
