Abstract

In this concluding chapter, we discuss some of the major takeaways of the book. We find that signs are an act of both communication and participation, and that the conventional wisdom that signs are primarily campaign tools is misguided. At the same time, displayers and non-displayers ascribe different meanings to signs, and the distinction between in-party and out-party signs is important in determining how signs spread throughout neighborhoods. In turn, once present, those signs can influence perceptions of social space and social interactions, especially in the most intimate social contexts. In addition, we discuss lessons learned with respect to spatial analysis and network analysis and their power, both individually, but especially jointly, to reinvigorate the community studies paradigm. We conclude by reflecting on the yard sign as a political symbol and considering how such symbols are especially powerful in an age of intensely salient and polarized partisan identities.
政治参与与传播的新视角
在这最后一章,我们将讨论本书的一些主要要点。我们发现,标语既是一种交流行为,也是一种参与行为,认为标语主要是竞选工具的传统观念是错误的。同时,展示者和非展示者赋予标志不同的含义,党内和党外标志之间的区别对于决定标志如何在社区中传播是很重要的。反过来,这些迹象一旦出现,就会影响人们对社会空间和社会互动的看法,尤其是在最亲密的社会环境中。此外,我们还讨论了空间分析和网络分析方面的经验教训,以及它们的力量,无论是单独的,还是共同的,以重振社区研究范式。最后,我们反思了庭院标志作为一种政治符号,并考虑了这种符号在一个强烈突出和两极分化的党派身份的时代是如何特别强大的。
