In the tradition of nonpartisanship and current analysis that is the hallmark of CQ Press, CQ Researcher readers investigate important and controversial policy issues. Offer your students the balanced reporting, complete overviews, and engaging writing that CQ Researcher has consistently provided for more than 80 years.

A pro/con box that examines two competing sides of a single question
A detailed chronology of key dates and events

Photos, charts, graphs, and maps

Recensioner i media

Good supplementary reading on a range of CSR issues. Would be more useful outside the US with less focus on America in some chapters.
