The right to fair wages for work. The access to clean air and water. The ability for everyone to vote. The right to seek asylum. Readers will explore laws that we may take for granted, but whose existence hasn't always been assured, and may yet be challenged in the future. Unemployment law and occupational safety laws changed the workplace. The U.S. government has both protected our natural resources and whittled them away. Readers will learn how the right to vote was established, and how it continues to be challenged. These laws changed history, and they continue to do so every day. Features include: Chronologies help readers trace how laws evolved over time, sometimes steadily, other times in fits and spurts. Sidebars that highlight specific examples and supply extra historical information. Illuminates important themes and topics in both civics and history, such as the section on Processes, Rules, and Laws in the Civics dimension of the C3 Framework, as well as those on Change, Continuity, and Context and Causation and Argumentation in its History dimension.
