| Abstract | ormer speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Thomas Phillip “Tip” O’Neill, Jr. is well known for his aphorism that “All Politics is Local”; public opinion emerges from what citizens experience and see at their local levels of government, not in remote, national governments. This maxim is not surprising (especially in the U.S. context) since it is common for individuals to be more closely connected with their local authorities relative to their national governments. In turn, citizens tend to participate more actively in local meetings to solve their collective problems while participation in public institutions at the national level is usually far more limited. |
