Tracing the developments that have given rise to a culture of anger in the mass public, the book sheds new light on both public opinion and voting behavior. Steven Webster skillfully uses a combination of novel datasets, new measures of anger, and a series of experiments to show how anger causes citizens to lose trust in the national government and weaken in their commitment to democratic norms and values. Despite these negative consequences, political elites strategically seek to elicit anger among their supporters. Presenting compelling evidence, Webster ultimately concludes that elites engage in this behavior because voter anger leads to voter loyalty. When voters are angry, they are more likely to vote for their party's slate of candidates at multiple levels of the federal electoral system"-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a The rise of anger in the American public -- Political elites and the strategic use of anger -- Trait-based anger and governmental distrust -- The causal effect of anger on trust in government -- Anger and democratic values in the mass public -- Anger and voter loyalty -- Anger and the future of American government. 650 0 $a Political culture $z United States. 650 0 $a Political psychology $z United States. 650 0 $a Anger $x Political aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a Voting research $z United States. 650 0 $a Party affiliation $z United States. 651 0 $a United States $x Public opinion. $y 21st century $x Public opinion. 650 0 $a Public opinion $z United States. 650 7 $a Party affiliation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01054227 650 7 $a Political culture. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069263 650 7 $a Political psychology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069667 650 7 $a Politics and government $x Public opinion. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919779 650 7 $a Public opinion. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01082785 650 7 $a Voting research. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01169267 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a 2000-2099 $2 fast 776 08 $i Online version: $a Webster, Steven W., 1990- $t American rage $d Cambridge, United Kingdom ; New York, NY : Cambridge University Press, 2020. $z 9781108868303 $w (DLC) 2020012949 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317025843.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=32ADA79686E611EB80D4A9DB35ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
