Accountability and responsiveness: A Sentiment-democracy?. 330 $aThis book illustrates how social media platforms enable us to understand everyday politics and evaluates the extent to which they can foster accountability, transparency and responsiveness. The first part focuses on accountability and tests whether the offline behavior of politicians is consistent with their online declarations, showing that textual analysis of politicians? messages is useful to explain phenomena such as endorsements, party splits and appointments to cabinet. The second part concerns responsiveness. By means of sentiment analysis, it investigates the shape of the interaction between citizens and politicians determining whether politicians? behavior is influenced by the pressure exerted on social media both on policy and non-policy issues. Finally, the book evaluates whether a responsive behavior is successful in restoring online political trust, narrowing the gap between voters and political elites. The book will be of use to students, scholars and practitioners interested in party organization, intra-party politics, legislative politics, social media analysis and political communication, as well as politicians themselves. 606 $aPolitical communication 606 $aSocial media 606 $aLegislative bodies 606 $aPolitical leadership 606 $aPolitical Communication$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911030 606 $aSocial Media$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/412020 606 $aLegislative and Executive Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911240 606 $aPolitical Leadership$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911230 615 0$aPolitical communication. 615 0$aSocial media. 615 0$aLegislative bodies. 615 0$aPolitical leadership. 615 14$aPolitical Communication. 615 24$aSocial Media. 615 24$aLegislative and Executive Politics. 615 24$aPolitical Leadership. 676 $a302.231 700 $aCeron$b Andrea$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0480771 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255289003321 996 $aSocial Media and Political Accountability$92268413 997 $aUNINA
