This book illuminates, and ultimately defends, attitudinal
hypocrisy within the personal politics of Americans by utilizing
statistical analyses within political history, social psychology,
public opinion, and political science. Within a simple and
parsimonious model of political attitudes, along with a novel
method of calculating and operationalizing what attitudinal
hypocrisy is, the book argues that the wielding of conflicting
attitudes is a necessary characteristic of the American electorate.
It uses an innovative multidisciplinary approach to answer some of
the most pervasive questions in American politics: Why do
conservatives preach the value of economic libertarianism, but
decry the lack of government involvement in social issues and the
military? Why do liberals extol the virtues of a regulatory
economic state, but not a cultural or military state?
