Political Keywords presents an overview of how American political communication has been changed by the use of certain dominant political terms. The book therefore offers something new, based as it is on eleven separate studies of the political language used in the United States during the last half-century.

The result is a book with vision and breadth, one suited to readers from a wide variety of backgrounds.
