They rigorously test this hypothesis using carefully crafted experiments and rich cross-national survey data, showing how language shapes mass opinion in domains such as gender equality, LGBTQ rights, environmental conservation, ethnic relations, and candidate evaluations. 'Voicing Politics' traces how these patterns emerge in polities spanning the globe, shedding essential light on how simple linguistic quirks can affect our political views. This incisive book calls on scholars of political behaviour to take linguistic nuances more seriously and charts new directions for researchers across diverse fields. 588 Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed on June 8, 2023). 521 Specialized. 500 Previously issued in print: 2022. 504 Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 Language and languages |xPolitical aspects. 650 0 Public opinion. 650 0 Political sociology. 650 0 Sociolinguistics. 650 7 Politics and Government. |2ukslc 650 7 Politics & government. |2thema 776 |z0-691-21513-8 700 1 Tavits, Margit, |eauthor. 830 0 Princeton studies in political behavior. 830 0 Princeton scholarship online. 906 BOOK
