This book brings together for the first time an updated, revised
collection of influential essays and articles that capture some of
the most exciting scientific and scholarly contributions to the
topic of political ideology. John Jost tackles fundamental
questions about how psychology, neuroscience, and societal factors
impact political attitudes and group divisions. In what sense, if
any, are ordinary citizens "ideological"? Is it useful to locate
political attitudes on a single dimension of representation? Are
there meaningful differences in the beliefs, opinions, and values
of leftists and rights-or liberals and conservatives? How are
personality traits related to ideological preferences? What
situational or contextual factors contribute to liberal and
conservative shifts in the general population? What are the
implications of ideological polarization for the future of
democracy? Drawing on Max Weber's concept of elective affinities,
one of the world's leading political psychologists discusses the
myriad ways in people choose ideas and ideas choose people.
