简介

When a government announces that it will 'listen to thepublic',we are reminded that public opinion, and not justvoting,underpins democracy. Matters olc Opinion offers aninterestinginsight into 'public opinion' as reported in the media,askingwhere these opinions actually come from, and how they havetheireffects. Drawing on the analysis of conversations fromfocusgroups, phone-ins, and broadcast interviews with membersof'thepublic, Greg Myers argues that we must go back totheseencounters, asking questions such as what members of'thepublicthought they were being asked, whom they were talking as,andwhom they were talking to. He suggests that people don't carryastore of opinions, ready to tell strangers; they use opinionsinorder to get along with other people, and how they say things isasimportant as what they say. Engaging and informative, thisbookilluminates debates on research methods, the public sphere,anddeliberative democracy, on broadcast talk, and on what it meantoparticipate in public life.
