Political (Dis)engagement: The Changing Nature of the "Political" de Nathan Manning

Political (Dis)engagement: The Changing Nature of the "Political": Contemporary Issues in Social Policy: Challenges for Change

Editat de Nathan Manning
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 ian 2017
In what ways are the meaning and practice of politics changing? Why might so many people feel dissatisfied with and disaffected by electoral politics? What approaches do political activists use to raise issues and mobilize people for action? What role do the Internet and social media play in contemporary citizenship and activism? This truly interdisciplinary book offers answers to all of these questions. Bringing together international academics, political activists, and campaigners, it explores the meaning of politics and citizenship in contemporary society and the current forms of political (dis)engagement. This book offers a rare dialogue between analysts and activists and will be especially valuable to academics and students across the social sciences, in particular sociology and political science.

Recenzii

“This is a very important book which both reminds us of ways of thinking about politics that have been submerged in recent decades and urges us to think more imaginatively about new ways of being political. Anyone interested in the revitalization of democratic politics should read this book.”

“In contrasting traditional with new, everyday forms of digital participation, this book engagingly raises challenging questions about whose experiences and identities are included, and also who is increasingly excluded or disengaging from both new and old politics.”

“An excellent contribution to the growing literature on alternative forms of political participation, at a time when too many see young people especially as apathetic and uninvolved.”
