Reviews for Parliamentary America: The Least Radical Means of Radically Repairing Our Broken Democracy

[Stearns] proposes three specific amendments to the US Constitution, complete with the text of the amendments themselves and detailed explanations of how they operate. Yet if all Stearns sought was just to make a proposal, he needn't have written a book in the first place. Instead, Stearns builds up his own interpretative framework, grounded in an analysis of American social, political, and media history, as well as comparative political science....A valuable contribution. —Liberal Currents
