Tides of Consent(ISBN=9780521601177)

Politics is a trial in which those in government - and thosewho aspire to be - make proposals, debate alternatives, and passlaws. Then the jury of public opinion decides. It likes theproposals or actions or it does not. It trusts the actors or itdoesn't. It moves, always at the margin, and then those who benefitfrom the movement are declared winners. This book is about thatpublic opinion response. Its most basic premise is that althoughpubic opinion rarely matters in a democracy, public opinion changeis the exception. Public opinion rarely matters, because the publicrarely cares enough to act on its concerns or preferences. Changehappens only when the threshold of normal public inattention iscrossed. When public opinion changes, governments rise or fall,elections are won or lost, old realities give way to newdemands. ? Complete account of American public opinion ? Emphasis is onmotion ?
