Political Participation in the United States analyzes patterns of
political participation by citizens and offers five different
explanations for those patterns based on recent research findings.
Symbolic and instrumental forms of participation are analyzed-from
the simple act of discussing politics to the more complex one of
running for office. The book examines who participates, what forms
of participation they choose, and what they hope to accomplish. M.
Margaret Conway also considers the reasons for, and the
consequences of, non-participation. She concludes with a discussion
of the impact of participation on individuals and on the policies
and processes of government in the United States. This new third
edition is updated throughout both in its discussion of research
about participation, and its examination of participation patterns
(through the 1998 elections). Expanded discussions cover: the role
of political mobilization in recruiting people to participate; the
impact of relative education levels on the types of participation
people engage in; and the importance of social connectedness in
stimulating participation and acting as a channel for political
recruitment.
