The United States Government and How It Got That Way

With the United States elections taking place in November, this timely course examines the three branches of the United States Government—legislative, executive, and judicial. You will focus on the ways in which the power of government overlaps and how these overlaps have changed in the 230 years since the government was created. Special attention will be paid to the political parties and the way that government officials are (s)elected.
