The Democratic Faith

“For students of voting behavior, seeing Sniderman revisit and reinterpret these findings is interesting and refreshing.”—Choice

“Important essays from one of the leading voices in political science research.”—Library Journal

"Paul Sniderman is the real deal: a scholar who cares far more about pursuing the truth than he does about avoiding ruffling feathers. His views on citizen competence and tolerance highlight aspects of how people think and feel that have been largely ignored or marginalized over the last forty-five years. Read him to see the world differently—and more as it is."—Phil Tetlock, coauthor of Superforecasting: The Art and Science of Prediction

"Paul Sniderman's deeply informed analysis of enduring questions in political psychology—regarding ideology, partisanship, racial attitudes, and the capacity for democratic citizenship—could not be more timely.  It provokes reflection and rethinking in the wake of fundamental challenges to our understanding of the American electorate."—Gary Jacobson, Professor Emeritus of Political Science at U.C.
