?:abstract
  • Accurate portraits of the political world are not easy to come by. Occasionally an Alexis de Tocqueville captures the spirit of an age, but the anecdotes and personal experience of even the most perspicacious observers are usually unequal to the task of describing the political activities of millions of citizens, thousands of groups, and hundreds of institutions. It is even harder for observers to capture the ebb and flow of public opinion in twentieth-century nation-states, the upsurges of political protest, the tides of voting, and the waves of authoritarianism that have been followed by those of democratization. To comprehend these phenomena, political scientists need observational tools as powerful as those in the physical and biological sciences. Scientific surveys are one of these tools, and they have been widely used in the social sciences since the 1940s. Surveys were used in about 10% of the articles published between 1991 and 1995 in the American Political Science Review and in about 15% of those p ublished in the American Journal of Political Science. [1] No other method for understanding politics is used more, [2] and no other method has so consistently illuminated political science theories with political facts. (xsd:string)
