Competitive elections and the American voter
Keena Lipsitz · 2011
על הספר
"Tight political races with their emotionally charged debates, mud-slinging, and uncertain outcomes are stressful for voters and candidates alike, but that stress may be healthy for democracy. Keena Lipsitz argues that highly contested electoral battles in fact create an environment that allows citizens to make more enlightened decisions. Competitive Elections and the American Voter reminds us that we avoid political controversy and conflict at our peril. This eye-opening analysis of political communication and campaign information environments encourages citizens, scholars, and campaign reformers to recognize the crucial role that contested elections play in a democracy"--Unedited summary from book cover.
