The persistence of political diversity and disagreement does not imply that political interdependence is absent among citizens or that political influence is lacking. The book's analysis makes a number of contributions. The authors demonstrate the ubiquitous nature of political disagreement. They show that communication and influence within dyads is autoregressive - that the consequences of dyadic interactions depend on the distribution of opinions within larger networks of communication. They argue that the autoregressive nature of political influence serves to sustain disagreement within patterns of social interaction, as it restores the broader political relevance of social communication and influence. They eliminate the deterministic implications that have typically been connected to theories of democratic politics based on interdependent citizens. 410 0$aCambridge studies in public opinion and political psychology. 606 $aCommunication in politics 606 $aPolitical participation 606 $aConsensus (Social sciences) 606 $aPublic opinion 606 $aDemocracy 615 0$aCommunication in politics. 615 0$aPolitical participation. 615 0$aConsensus (Social sciences) 615 0$aPublic opinion. 615 0$aDemocracy. 676 $a320/.01/4 700 $aHuckfeldt$b R.
