The American electoral system is clearly failing—more horrifically in the 2016 presidential election than ever before. In It’s Time to Fight Dirty: How Democrats Can Build a Lasting Majority in American Politics, David Faris expands on his popular series for “The Week” to offer party leaders and supporters concrete strategies for lasting political reform—and in doing so lays the groundwork for a more progressive future. With equal parts playful irreverence and persuasive reasoning, It’s Time to Fight Dirty is essential reading as we head toward the 2018 midterms…and beyond.

David Faris is an Associate Professor of Political Science at Roosevelt University in Chicago. He is the author of Dissent and Revolution in a Digital Age: Social Media, Blogging and Activism in Egypt and Social Media in Iran: Politics and Society After 2009. He holds a PhD in Political Science from the University of Pennsylvania and is a regular contributor to “The Week.” He lives in Chicago.
