New book announcement
Political Communication in Britain: Campaigning, Media and Polling in the 2017 General Election. Palgrave.
As the UK again contemplates the possibility of returning to the polls this study revisits the most recent general election, a campaign that was about many things in addition to Brexit.
Against prior expectations the 2017 General Election proved to be particularly dramatic, repeatedly stunning commentators from its surprise calling right through to its frenetic conclusion. In seven weeks a hitherto dominant Prime Minister saw her once seemingly unassailable lead in the polls eroded as support for her previously beleaguered rival surged. The subsequent restoration of two-party dominance contributed to the return of a hung parliament with profound consequences for both Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn. Political Communication in Britain, the tenth volume in a series that began nearly four decades ago, revisits a momentous election by providing unique insights from the vantage point of those who fought, reported and researched a campaign that is likely to live long in the public imagination.
Features chapters from over twenty five academic and practitioner contributors on broadcast, print, social and digital media coverage as well reviews of main party campaigns and the performance of the polls.
