Opinions, Publics and Pressure Groups: An Essay on 'Vox Populi' and Representative Government

By Gerald Studdert-Kennedy and Graeme C Moodie

Book Overview

Must democracy be a sham because 'the people' are too ignorant and irrational? What, in any case, does or can representative government mean in a complex industrial society - and what does it mean to be rational in politics? It is to these and other vital issues that this book, first published in 1970, directs itself.
