Taschenbuch. Zustand: Sehr gut. Sixth printing (Original 1927). xlviii, 195 S., 18cm Zustand: Namenseintrag, sonst sehr gut --- Inhalt: englischer Text. In an era disgusted with politicians and the various instruments of "direct democracy," Walter Lippmann`s The Phantom Public remains as relevant as ever. It reveals Lippmann at a time when he was most critical of the ills of American democracy. Antipopulist in sentiment, this volume defends elitism as a serious and distinctive intellectual option, one with considerable precursors in the American past. Lippmann`s demythologized view of the American system of government resonates today. The Phantom Public discusses the "disenchanted man" who has become disillusioned not only with democracy, but also with reform. According to Lippmann, the average voter is incapable of governance; what is called the public is merely a "phantom." In terms of policy-making, the distinction should not be experts versus amateurs, but insiders versus outsiders. Lippmann challenges the core assumption of Progressive politics as well as any theory that pretends to leave political decision making in the hands of the people as a whole. In his biography Walter Lippmann and the American Century, Ronald Steel praised The Phantom Public as "one of Lippmann`s most powerfully argued and revealing books. In it he came fully to terms with the inadequacy of traditional democratic theory." This volume is part of a continuing series on the major works of Walter Lippmann. As more and more Americans are inclined to become apathetic to the political system, this classic will be essential reading for students, teachers, and researchers of political science and history.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Phantom Public' is a seminal work of political philosophy and social criticism by Walter Lippmann. This profound treatise challenges the traditional concept of the omnicompetent citizen and the idealized notion of a sovereign public. Lippmann argues that the increasing complexity of modern society makes it impossible for individual citizens to possess the expert knowledge required to make informed decisions on every issue of public policy. Instead, he posits that the public is largely a phantom-a reactive body that only intervenes in affairs during times of crisis. Through incisive analysis, Lippmann explores the limitations of democratic theory and the practical realities of governance in a specialized world. He suggests that the true role of the public is not to direct the course of government, but to provide a check on the exercise of power and to choose between competing leaders. This work remains a cornerstone of twentieth-century political thought, offering essential insights into the nature of democracy, the power of media, and the challenges of collective decision-making in a technological age. 'The Phantom Public' continues to be a vital resource for students of political science, sociology, and journalism, prompting readers to reconsider the fundamental relationship between the individual and the state.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Lippmann critically assesses the idealized notion of an informed and engaged citizenry, questioning the practical capacity of the general public to effectively participate in complex governance. He delves into the inherent challenges of collective decision-making, exploring the limitations and misconceptions surrounding the concept of the 'public.' Through insightful analysis, Lippmann scrutinizes how political processes unfold, often distinct from theoretical ideals. He investigates the mechanisms by which public opinion forms, its true influence, and the practical difficulties faced by individuals attempting to grasp the complexities of state affairs. This foundational text navigates the intricate relationship between citizenship, governance, and the formation of public consciousness, drawing on deep insights into political theory. Lippmann's arguments illuminate the persistent complexities of political systems and the practicalities of governing, making 'The phantom public' an essential inquiry into the mechanics of democracy.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Collected in this massive 500+ page omnibus editions are Walter Lippman's four most important books. These four books are seminal texts in the fields of media studies political science and social psychology. The father of modern journalism Walter Lippmann was a two-time Pulitzer Prize-winner and visionary.A Preface to Politics is most incisive comment on politics to-day is indifference. When men and women begin to feel that elections and legislatures do not matter very much that politics is a rather distant and unimportant exercise the reformer might as well put to himself a few searching doubts. Indifference is a criticism that cuts beneath oppositions and wranglings by calling the political method itself into question.In Liberty and the News Walter Lippmann offers us a stern warning about the importance of reliable news to the survival of a healthy democracy. He railed against bad journalism and drove home the point that the general public must be able to ascertain the truth or democracy is doomed. Public Opinion exposes how media can shape public perception and how that perception changes society. It is a critical assessment of functional democratic government especially of the irrational and often self-serving social perceptions that influence individual behavior and prevent optimal societal cohesion. The detailed descriptions of the cognitive limitations people face in comprehending their sociopolitical and cultural environments leading them to apply an evolving catalogue of general stereotypes to a complex reality rendered Public OpinionThe Phantom Public was Lippman's most towering achievement influencing political thought for decades to come. In it Lippman posits that the public exists merely as an illusion myth and inevitably a phantom; that the common man cannot be expected to know enough about events entirely beyond their control to cast an informed and meaningful vote.…
