Jane Junn Boeken

Jane Junn is hoogleraar politicologie en haar werk duikt in de ingewikkelde verbanden tussen politieke participatie en publieke opinie in de Verenigde Staten. Haar onderzoek onderzoekt kritisch hoe kwesties als ras, immigratie en het gevoel van verbondenheid de opvattingen en betrokkenheid van burgers vormgeven. Ze onderzoekt de complexe wisselwerking van deze factoren bij het vormen van politieke attitudes en gedragingen, en benadrukt hun diepgaande impact op het Amerikaanse politieke landschap.
