Recommended Resource
CQ Researcher is an online database of in-depth, authoritative reports on public and social policy issues extending back to 1923. Each report is written by a seasoned journalist, covers a single subject or theme, and provides comprehensive coverage of the issue reported. The contents of each report include an overview, background information, current situation, pro-con arguments, chronology, and bibliography, among other features.
