Why do some people involve themselves in politics and others not? Which issues are they concerned with? What do they get out of it? Answering such questions is fundamental to understanding political life and the workings of liberal democracies. This book presents the results of one of the most extensive surveys ever undertaken on the levels and patterns of political involvement in Britain. It is based on the findings of a sample survey of nearly 1,600 people across England, Scotland and Wales as well as a further 1,600 men and women and nearly 300 leaders in six specially selected and contrasting communities. These people were asked about the extent to which they had taken political action, particularly at a local level, and the authors found higher levels of participation than previous research has revealed. They analyse these findings in terms of age, gender, social class and education and look at the reactions of local leaders to the efforts people make to influence them.

The British Electorate, 1963–1992: A Compendium of Data from the British Election Studies

Updated to include the 1992 election, The British Electorate is an essential reference for social and political researchers on voting patterns and public opinion in Britain over the past quarter century. Its tables show trends between 1963 and 1992 in the vote, turnout, and party membership; and attitudes to a range of issues, such as nationalization, capital punishment and abortion. Trends among subgroups of the electorate such as men and women, young and old, trade unionists, the unemployed, Conservative and Labour voters, and many others are also traced.
