With levels of economic and political inequality on the rise across the developed democracies, citizens are becoming more disengaged from their neighbourhoods and communities, more distrustful of politicians and political parties, more sceptical of government goods and services, and less interested in voicing their frustrations in public or at the ballot box. The result is a growing number of silent citizens who seem disconnected from democratic politics--who are unaware of political issues, lack knowledge about public affairs, do not debate, deliberate, or take action, and most fundamentally, do not vote. Yet, although silent citizenship can and does indicate deficits of democracy, research suggests that these deficits are not the only reason citizens may have for remaining silent in democratic life. Silence may also reflect an active and engaged response to politics under highly unequal conditions. What is missing is a full accounting of the problems and possibilities for democracy that silent citizenship represents. Bringing together leading scholars in political science and democratic theory, this book provides a valuable exploration of the changing nature and form of silent citizenship in developed democracies today"--Page i. 650 0 $a Marginality, Social $x Political aspects. 650 0 $a Political participation. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85104370 650 0 $a Equality. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85044503 650 0 $a Citizenship. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85026205 650 0 $a Democracy. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85036647 650 7 $a Citizenship. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00861909 650 7 $a Democracy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00890077 650 7 $a Marginality, Social. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01009156 650 7 $a Political participation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069386 700 1 $a Gest, Justin, $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2010026417 700 1 $a Gray, Sean W.
