The Phantom Public

Více o knize

Lippman's influential work explores the concept of the public as an illusion, arguing that the average citizen lacks the knowledge necessary to make informed voting decisions on complex issues. He suggests that the notion of a fully informed public is a myth, raising critical questions about democracy and the role of the common man in political processes. This thought-provoking analysis has significantly shaped political discourse for decades, challenging traditional views on public opinion and civic engagement.
