Andrea Clesi and I are leading the discussion Monday. If you recall, we will be looking at the second half of Zaller and Converse's 1962 article. Some of Zaller's ideas about 2-way messaging build off of Converse's '62 work. If you haven't launched into Carpini & Keeter What Americans Know About Politics and Why It Matters yet, you should because it's good stuff! And central to the THEME of our discussion Monday: Citizen Capacity: Can the public contribute meaningfully to democratic policy-making?
2 outside readings are suggested:
- Walter Lippmann's 1922 book Public Opinion > Amazon
- Mass Communication and Voter Volatility, Bybee et al. (1981) Public Opinion Quarterly Bybee, C., McLeod, J., Luetscher, W., & Garramone, G. (1981). Mass Communication and Voter Volatility. Public Opinion Quarterly, 45(1), 69.
