Grassroots for Hire: Public Affairs Consultants in American Democracy - Business and Public Policy
Walker, Edward T. (University of California, Los Angeles)
Aimed at students and researchers in sociology, political science, management, and communication, this book illuminates how elite consultants have adopted grassroots advocacy tactics for paying clients. Rather than being dismissed as mere 'astroturf', these consultants' campaigns should be seen as having real effects on political participation and policymaking.
