Description: Information and American Democracy by Bruce Bimber Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description This book provides a comprehensive evaluation of the Internet in American democracy. The author places the contemporary information revolution in historical context. This was the first book published at the time about the Internet and politics to combine historical analysis, case studies of political events, and survey analysis. Publisher Description This book assesses the consequences of new information technologies for American democracy in a way that is theoretical and also historically grounded. The author argues that new technologies have produced the fourth in a series of information revolutions in the US, stretching back to the founding. Each of these, he argues, led to important structural changes in politics. After re-interpreting historical American political development from the perspective of evolving characteristics of information and political communications, the author evaluates effects of the Internet and related new media. The analysis shows that the use of new technologies is contributing to post-bureaucratic political organization and fundamental changes in the structure of political interests. The authors conclusions tie together scholarship on parties, interest groups, bureaucracy, collective action, and political behavior with new theory and evidence about politics in the information age.
