In the wake of the Great Recession and amid rising discontent with government responsiveness to ordinary citizens, the book follows participants in two very different groups--a progressive faith-based community organization and a conservative Tea Party group--as they set out to become active and informed citizens, put their faith into action, and hold government accountable. Both groups viewed themselves as the latest in a long line of prophetic voices and patriotic heroes who were carrying forward the promise of the American democratic project. Yet the ways in which each group put this common vision into practice reflected very different understandings of American democracy and citizenship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ruth Braunstein\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520293649\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520293649\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/23\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 252\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.75d","brand":"Ruth Braunstein","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065002275071,"sku":"9780520293649","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_60b86e3a-2a18-4ffc-86c4-cb7cab5dae87.jpg?v=1768672486","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/prophets-and-patriots-ruth-braunstein-9780520293649","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
