This book examines types of political participation in ten Asian countries. The inquiry begins by building on past theories of types of political behavior and who participates in each type. Then six dimensions of political participation are constructed and tested using a survey dataset from the Asian Barometer Survey. The findings from this empirical analysis indicate that Asians also fall into six political behavior types.

The analysis continues with an examination of social characteristics (such as age, gender, income, etc.) that help determine with which type of participation one will be involved. After examining participation in the region as a whole, the scope of this book turns to a quantitative investigation of individual countries in Asia.

Contents:

  • Introduction to Asian Political Behavior
  • Literature Review
  • Participation in the Asian Context
  • Typologies of Participation in Asia
  • Political Behavior within Ten Asian Countries
  • Conclusion

Readership: Academics, undergraduate and graduate students, professionals interested in political participation, political behavior in Asian countries.
Key Features:

  • Examines all aspects of political participation in Asia instead of focusing on just voter turnout
  • Includes survey data from thousands of individuals, across ten countries, to help quantitatively explain participation patterns in Asia
