Voting: A Study of Opinion Formation in a Presidential Campaign: Emersion: Emergent Village resources for communities of faith
Autor Bernard R. Berelson, Paul F. Lazarsfeld, William N. McPheeen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mai 1986
Voting is an examination of the factors that make people vote the way they do. Based on the famous Elmira Study, carried out by a team of skilled social scientists during the 1948 presidential campaign, it shows how voting is affected by social class, religious background, family loyalties, on-the-job relationships, local pressure groups, mass communication media, and other factors. Still highly relevant, Voting is one of the most frequently cited books in the field of voting behavior.
