Description for The Politics of Lying: Implications for Democracy
Hardcover. This book provides an attempt to synthesize a pervasive phenomenon that is mentioned tangentially in many political analyses, but here receives a systematic and theoretical treatment commensurate with its significance to the working of "democratic" political practice. Num Pages: 236 pages, biography. BIC Classification: JPA; JPHV; JPV. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 226 x 146 x 23. Weight in Grams: 506.
This book provides the first attempt to synthesise what is a pervasive phenomenon, and one that is mentioned tangentially in many political analyses, but nowhere receives the systematic and theoretical treatment that its significance to the working of 'democratic' political practice deserves. It will thus be a volume that should interest a range of scholars in government and political theory, in comparative politics and communications.

Reviews for The Politics of Lying: Implications for Democracy
'A refreshing and timely study on an issue central to our understanding of how we are governed and one too often neglected by academics.' - Richard Norton-Taylor, The Guardian
