Effective conversations have the potential to engage, educate, and animate both citizens and governmental officials. On the individual level, discovering successful conversational strategies benefits both political and social interaction. This book offers guidelines for conducting effective conversations personally, politically, and beyond such that readers of this book are unlikely to ever again look at conversation in the same way. New technologies and social trends both challenge and potentially enhance traditional face-to-face and media dominated conversations. Understanding the state, quality and potential of political conversations provides a unique perspective for evaluating and potentially improving government "by the people." 606 $aPolitical participation$zUnited States 606 $aConversation$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States 606 $aCommunication in politics$zUnited States 615 0$aPolitical participation 615 0$aConversation$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aCommunication in politics 676 $a320.973014 700 $aFrantzich$b Stephen E.$0920546 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910972964603321 996 $aThe conversations of democracy$94469932 997 $aUNINA
