Using data from a nationally representative survey of 2045 individuals conducted in April–May 2022, we examine whether individuals who watched the satirical film <i>Don't Look Up</i>, which debuted on Netflix in December 2021, demonstrated greater climate change concern, motivation to act, and policy support than those who did not see the film. We also examine the impact of narrative transportation on persuasion, assessing whether being deeply immersed in the film predicted climate change attitudes. Our results indicate that viewers who were deeply engaged with the film held stronger proenvironmental attitudes. These associations occurred among both Democratic and Republican viewers, suggesting that transportation induced by entertainment media can shape public opinion on policy issues. Our results have implications for the micro and macro levels of the Narrative Policy Framework and for climate change communication, more generally.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Related Articles</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Chalaya, T., C.

Following the waves of protest in 2011 and 2013, students successfully pressured the enactment of free education policy in 2016 and a new higher education law in 2018. However, why did activists persist in opposing the reform, in what ways did they oppose it, and what outcomes did they achieve? The study shows that students opposed the reform due to significant policy disagreements and omissions between government proposals and activist demands. It further details how students employed insider strategies to enhance their access and representation within policy-making processes. Nonetheless, these strategies did not yield improved outcomes; activists encountered political and institutional constraints that limited their impact on the reform. The article concludes by reflecting on how the movement's constrained impacts illustrate the resilience of neoliberal policies and the ongoing challenges in democratizing educational policy.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":51679,"journal":{"name":"Politics & Policy","volume":"53 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143380845","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Voter turnout was high in the 2020 presidential election, the highest for any other presidential election since 1900. I submit that the psychological influences of populism and psychological involvement foster this high turnout. Using the 2020 American National Election Study, this article examines their influences on political behavior. It places greater focus on populism because scholars of American elections rarely test it as an individual-level force in presidential elections and because scholars do not examine it with psychological involvement simultaneously. I find that populism and psychological involvement are distinct concepts, both boost voter turnout, and they shape vote choice and candidate affect.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Related Articles</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Aguado, N.

The article contains three sections. The first one reports that these items were published during a very short period by a limited number of authors and universities supported by public funds. Second, the article stresses the importance of federal architecture by highlighting the debate on recentralization, the weight of intergovernmental relations to guarantee policy efficiency, and the dilemma of policy instruments and intersectoral action. Finally, the review points out the significance of politics during the pandemic, exemplified by the rise of polarization, the role of central leadership, and the upsurge of a new cleavage centered on COVID-19.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Related Articles</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Lauby, Fanny, and Christopher J.

Three ethical problems are identified and analyzed, which relate to starting points, the content of the PD, and the implementation.

We argue that leaders themselves are a critical factor in shaping middle power behavior. Incorporating the framework of role theories, we demonstrate that both López Obrador and Erdoğan personalized their countries' roles globally, aligning national populist narratives with foreign policy. We identify two core populist narratives—the leader's opposition to the political establishment and advocacy for the people's interests—and explore how these shaped Mexico's and Turkey's middle power roles, particularly in their promotion of global justice and solidarity during the pandemic.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Related Articles</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Özer, Sanem, Asiye Gün Güneş Gülal, and Yusuf Kenan Polat. 2023. “The Rule of Law in the Grip of Populist Authoritarianism: Hungary and Poland.” <i>Politics &amp; Policy</i> 51(5): 936–59. https://doi.org/10.1111/polp.12554.</p>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Skowronska, Kaja. 2021. “The Recent Politicization of Immigration in Poland in Light of Preexisting State Practices: Continuity or Change in the Understanding of Citizenship and Nationhood?” <i>Politics &amp; Policy</i> 49(4): 940–67. https://doi.org/10.1111/polp.12424.</p>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Villanueva Ulfgard, Rebecka, and César Villanueva. 2019. “Introduction: Capturing the Dilemmas of Modernity and Tradition in Mexico.” <i>Politics &amp; Policy</i> 47(1): 6–27. https://doi.org/10.1111/polp.12289.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":51679,"journal":{"name":"Politics & Policy","volume":"53 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/polp.12645","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143112553","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
