Spatial and social mobility in an increasingly globalized world is associated with new challenges for social sciences, including political science. This also applies to methods and methodology. The article aims to reveal the cognitive potential that lies in the use of multi–sited ethnography for research on politics and on the study of political behaviors (das Politische). The utility of this approach is illustrated on the basis of the research on social and spatial mobility of small town residents conducted with the use of this method.

This chapter examines whether there are perceptual differences in how partisan identifiers think about the in-group and out-group, and whether these judgments relate reliably to other attitudes and political behaviors. It first selectively reviews the psychological literature on social identity theory and group-based perceptual differences, focusing primarily on the out-group homogeneity effect. The subsequent analyses then consider and examine: how perceptions of in-group and out-group similarity and agreement vary among Democrats and Republicans, whether these judgments are systematically related to affective judgments about political groups and political figures, and whether these judgments relate to conventional political behaviors, such as voter turnout and vote choice. Finally, the chapter concludes with a set of recommendations for future research.

The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that increases in perceptions of organizational politics are associated with increases in the frequency and type of subsequent political behaviors. Regression analysis using data from 260 full-time employees indicated that the frequency of proactive and reactive political behaviors would increase for those individuals who perceived greater politics in their organization.

AbstractCan different experiences with discrimination produce divergent political behaviors? Does it make a difference whether individuals are discriminated against by their peers or community members in the course of everyday life as opposed to political actors or institutions tasked with upholding democratic norms of equality and fairness? Crossing disciplinary boundaries, this study proposes a new theoretical perspective regarding the relationship between discrimination and political behavior. Specifically, it distinguishes between societal (interpersonal) and political (systematic) discrimination when examining the behaviors of racial and ethnic minorities in Great Britain. The results illustrate that although experiences of political discrimination may motivate individuals to take part in mainstream politics for substantive or expressive purposes, the same conclusion cannot necessarily be drawn for those who experience societal rejection. The principal aim of this study is to further highlight the complex and multidimensional nature of discrimination, and to encourage further analyses of how different types of discrimination may impact the civic and political behaviors of minority groups.

Democrat' institutionalkation and civil society encouragement need a prerequisite, namely an integration between state and community elements. The unification of them will create a democratic political culture, namely, democratic civility. This a,pect of civility is significant to minimize primitive political behaviors causing a democratic civility vacuum. This vacuum is a result of neglecting an urgency of democracy education. Democrag, as an ideology, thrives by not only relying on natural process but also studying and practicing it continually. In this context, therefore, education owned by Moslems as that implemented in Pesantrens is one of important institutions that may build a democrat' education.
