Abstract:
|
This paper addresses a transformation in the techniques and style of democratic election campaigning widely agreed to have taken place in recent years, but too seldom subjected to careful analysis. It presents a theoretical account of the interrelated set of changes campaigns have undergone and offers preliminary support for this account in the form of a (two-party, single-country) case study. The first, theoretical section argues that the transformation of election campaigning can best be understood as a process of professionalization. The second, empirical section presents and evaluates a particular instance of campaign professionalization: the emergence and establishment of opinion research as a campaign technique in Great Britain. |
