Citizen Politics Zusammenfassung

Citizen Politics: Public Opinion and Political Parties in Advanced Industrial Democracies Russell J. Dalton

In addition to its comprehensive, thematic examination of political values, political activity, voting, and public images of government within a cross-national context, Citizen Politics explores new forms of political activity, such as Internet-based activism and new forms of political consumerism. All chapters have been updated with the latest research and empirical evidence. Further, Dalton includes new discussions of citizen sophistication and its implications for democratic citizenship.

New to this edition:

  • Coverage of the most recent elections in the U.S., Britain, France, and Germany help readers understand the latest trends in voter behaviour
  • New discussions of citizen sophistication show readers its implications for democratic citizenship
  • Coverage of current controversies in public opinion and electoral research encourages critical thinking
  • Expanded coverage of cross-national research on political representation deepens the research base of the text
  • A new data module from the World Values Survey facilitates student research projects
  • In-text learning aids include updated lists of suggested readings in each chapter, as well as an extensive bibliography on the most recent political behavior research

Citizen Politics Bewertungen

"Dalton's book does an excellent job of making behavioral methods and statistics accessible for undergrads." -- Robert Hinckley
