Congressional Communication in the Digital Age

Beschreibung

Over the past decade, congressional websites have become the primary way constituents communicate with their members and a prominent place for members to communicate with constituents. Yet, as we move toward the third decade of the 21st century, little work has systematically analyzed this forum as a distinct representational space. Evans and Hayden offer a fresh, timely, and mixed-methods approach for understanding how the emergence of virtual offices has impacted the representational relationship between constituents and members of Congress.
