Democracy From Within: A Democratic Cultural Schema in the US Public

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Are members of the public still committed to democracy? Existing studies often ask whether members of the public sanction political actors who break institutional or procedural norms. In contrast, we study a shared cultural horizon, which grounds democracy as a way of living.
