CURRENT EVENTS AND ISSUES / GENERAL

GREENWOOD SERIES
Documentary and Reference Guides

Students often are unaware that hotly contested public debates have deep historical roots. Intended to allow readers to engage with
history and discover the development of controversial social and political issues over time, the Documentary and Reference Guides
series introduces such issues through carefully chosen primary source documents.
The documents analyzed in these volumes encourage critical thinking, offering fresh perspectives as they sweep away
preconceptions and restore immediacy to debates that may have become stale. They encourage students to explore for themselves
how important issues came to be framed as they are and to consider how contemporary discussion might advance beyond the
assumptions and hardened positions of the past.
