The Politics of Resentment

Rural Consciousness in Wisconsin and the Rise of Scott Walker

Beschreibung

Using Scott Walker and Wisconsin's prominent and protracted debate about the appropriate role of government, the author illuminates the contours of rural consciousness, showing how place-based identities profoundly influence how people understand politics, regardless of whether urban politicians and their supporters really do shortchange or look down on those living in the country. Simultaneous. (Political Science)
