Publisher Synopsis
Continuing progress in political psychology depends jointly on innovative applications in both psychology and political analysis. The editors succeed in assembling a formidable set of novel analyses by outstanding scholars that are, at once, politically and psychologically compelling. Robert Huckfeldt, Distinguished Professor of Political Science, University of California, DavisPolitical Psychology: New Explorations presents original research by a number of prominent social psychologists on central political issues. Readers gain insight into a diverse set of topics including the dynamics of leadership, the psychology of collective action, human behavioral change, and the power of pocketbook economics. Taken together, the chapters provide keen practical political insight while also advancing an understanding of basic psychological processes.Leonie Huddy, Professor of Political Science, State University of New York at Stony BrookThis book conveys the rigor and vitality of scholarship in political psychology from the perspective of the "Stanford School." Esteemed authors consider rational and not-so-rational forces at work when it comes to elite decision-making, effects of mass media exposure, public policy preferences, voting behavior, participation in social movements, and other fundamental phenomena. For ardent observers of social and political behavior in the U.S. and elsewhere, this is a must read!John T. Jost, Co-Director of the Center for Social and Political Behavior and Professor of Psychology and Politics, New York University Read more...
