项目摘要
Political dialogue with non-like-minded others is an essential component of a health, functioning public pshere. Unfortunately, research suggests that people in the United States may be segregated increasingly from those with views which differ from their own, and thus political communication across lines of difference is more and more unlikely in people's day-to-day lives. Residential patterns have moved toward spatially segregated living. In addition to structural trends, exposure to dissimilar views is inhibited by the well-known tendency for people to select politically like-minded discussion partners. Strong ties and frequent interpersonal contact tend to occur within the context of homogeneous interactions, thus limiting the extent to which these contacts bring new views to people's attention. Based on evidence from secondary analyses of four independent surveys, we demonstrate that the workplace is a key context in which political dialogue regularly crosses lines of difference, and thus it constitutes a venue with tremendous potential to influence political attitudes. In order to understand better the current and potential future contributions of the workplace, our project is designed explicitly to study workplace networks of informal political communication. The project promises both theoretically interesting insights on contemporary concerns surrounding the prospects for a public sphere, and practical insights into how the workplace might be utilized better as a context for promoting the goals of both broader and deper public discourse. Our research questions are organized around three broad concerns: (1) What individual and environmental factors facilitate explosure to cross-cutting political views? (2) What are the consequences of cross-cutting political discussion? We examine a variety of specific outcomes that have been posited to result from exposure to diverse views. They include persuasion from one political viewpoint to another; greater awareness of rationales for opposing viewpoints on various issues, and the political tolerance that may flow from such awareness; a deeper understanding of the rationale for one's own political views; alterations in levels of political engagement; and the degree of social trust. (3) What role does the workplace play as a mediating structure in the political life of ordinary Americans? Our study makes uses of three different approaches to examine the contributions of the workplace toward cross-cutting political dialogue. First, we use several existing data sets that tap general networks of political communication in order to examine the ways in which discussants encountered through the workplace differ from those encountered in other venues. Second, since these previous network studies have been designed explicity to study residential social contexts, we plan to conduct a national survey of working Americans that focuses specifically on workplace networks of political discussion. Finally, we plan to conduct more intensive interviews with respondents in each of four different workplaces and five different work units within each of these workplaces for a total of 20 work units. In addition to studying a small number of workplaces in greater depth, the major advantage of this design component is that aggregate measures can be used as independent variables to explain variance in the nature of individual dyads. Beyond this, the contextual data and the dyad-level data can be used as independent variables to explain individual-level attitudes and behaviors. In other words, analyses can be performed across levels and units to draw stronger conclusions about who influences whom.
与意见不同的人进行政治对话是健康、有效的公共领域的重要组成部分。不幸的是,研究表明,在美国,人们可能越来越多地与持不同观点的人隔离开来,因此,在人们的日常生活中,跨越不同观点的政治交流越来越不可能。居住模式已转向空间隔离生活。除了结构性趋势外,众所周知,人们倾向于选择政治上志同道合的讨论伙伴,这也抑制了人们接触不同观点的机会。牢固的联系和频繁的人际接触往往发生在同质互动的背景下,从而限制了这些接触给人们带来新观点的程度。根据对四项独立调查的二次分析得出的证据,我们证明,工作场所是政治对话经常跨越分歧的关键环境,因此它构成了影响政治态度的巨大潜力的场所。为了更好地理解工作场所当前和潜在的未来贡献,我们的项目明确设计为研究非正式政治沟通的工作场所网络。该项目既提供了围绕公共领域前景的当代关注的理论有趣见解,也提供了如何更好地利用工作场所作为促进更广泛和更深入的公共话语目标的背景的实践见解。我们的研究问题围绕三个广泛的问题进行组织:(1)哪些个人和环境因素促进了跨领域政治观点的暴露?(2)跨领域政治讨论的后果是什么?我们研究了各种特定的结果,这些结果是由于暴露于不同的观点而产生的。它们包括从一种政治观点说服到另一种政治观点;对各种问题的对立观点的理由有更大的认识,并可能从这种认识中产生政治宽容;对自己政治观点的基本原理有更深的理解;政治参与程度的改变;以及社会信任的程度。(3)在普通美国人的政治生活中,工作场所作为一个中介结构发挥了什么作用?我们的研究使用了三种不同的方法来检验工作场所对跨领域政治对话的贡献。首先,我们使用了几个现有的数据集,这些数据集挖掘了政治沟通的一般网络,以检查讨论者在工作场所遇到的方式与在其他场所遇到的方式不同。其次,由于这些先前的网络研究已经明确地设计为研究住宅社会背景,我们计划对工作的美国人进行一项全国性的调查,特别关注政治讨论的工作场所网络。最后,我们计划在四个不同的工作场所和每个工作场所的五个不同的工作单位中对受访者进行更深入的访谈,总共20个工作单位。除了更深入地研究少数工作场所之外,这个设计组件的主要优点是,集合度量可以用作独立变量来解释个体二元性质的差异。除此之外,上下文数据和二元数据可以作为独立变量来解释个人层面的态度和行为。换句话说,可以跨层次和单位进行分析,以得出关于谁影响谁的更有力的结论。
