Political Communication and Democracy by G Rawnsley

Political Communication and Democracy by G Rawnsley

Political Communication and Democracy provides a wide-ranging and inclusive study of political communications that uses current political events and debates to illustrate its arguments. Looking beyond the narrow view that political communication concerns only the media and spin doctors, Gary Rawnsley examines the subject in its myriad forms: political parties and pressure groups as a way by which people join together, referendums, public opinion and how communications contribute to the process of democratization around the world.

'..Rawnsley offers a study of great breadth, ranging widely over Western and non-Western democracies, and offering discussion of public opinion, polling...party and group politics, and referenda.' - Nick Anstead, Political Studies Review
