A Loud but Noisy Signal? Public Opinion and Education Reform in Western Europe
Marius R. Busemeyer, Julian L. Garritzmann, and Erik Neimanns
„A
Loud But Noisy Signal?" studies the influence of public opinion on the
contemporary politics of education reform in Western Europe. The authors
analyze new data from a survey of public opinion on education policy across
eight countries, and they also provide detailed case studies of reform
processes based on interviews with policy-makers and stakeholders. The book's
core finding is that public opinion has the greatest influence in a world of
'loud' politics, when salience is high and attitudes are coherent. In contrast,
when issues are salient but attitudes are conflicting, the signal of public
opinion turns 'loud, but noisy' and party politics have a stronger influence on
policy-making. In the case of 'quiet' politics, when issue salience is low,
interest groups are dominant. This book is required reading for anyone seeking
to make sense of policy-makers' selective responsiveness to public demands and
concerns.
