Dynamics of Public Support
Dynamics of Public Support
In any long term political decision on a country level public support has a very important role in most of the countries. It becomes even more important in a case of long/unsuccessful negotiations with other involved parties since during time people start showing impatience and their trust in political parties reduces. Any major shock events, either financial crisis or natural disaster, could strongly affect public opinion by drawing attention to, or away from the topic. Being strongly influenced by media, it is very important to understand who is possible to provide and who actually does provide some point of view through the media to the public in every single case. Therefore NGOs, governments, lobbyist and a lot of other parties could shape public opinion.
