Yet while such conversations are a common part of everyday life, political scientists know very little about how they actually work. In Talking about Politics, Katherine Cramer Walsh provides an innovative, intimate study of how ordinary people use informal group discussions to make sense of politics. Walsh examines how people rely on social identities-their ideas of who "we" are-to come to terms with current events. In Talking about Politics, she shows how political conversation, friendship, and identity evolve together, creating stronger communities and stronger social ties. Political scientists, sociologists, and anyone interested in how politics really works need to read this book. 410 0$aStudies in communication, media, and public opinion. 606 $aCommunication in politics 606 $aGroup identity 606 $aDiscussion 606 $aPolitical sociology 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCommunication in politics. 615 0$aGroup identity. 615 0$aDiscussion. 615 0$aPolitical sociology. 676 $a320.973/01/4 700 $aWalsh$b Katherine Cramer$0910046 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458890103321 996 $aTalking about politics$92036826 997 $aUNINA
