Exploring Generational Politics in the United States
ANN ARBOR, MI / ACCESSWIRE / June 17, 2024
As we draw closer to the upcoming presidential election, focus shifts back to polls and generational voting trends. Headlines like “Young Voters Have an Entirely Different Concept of Politics” and “Prospect of a Rematch of Biden-Trump Causes Young Voters to Retreat” have already appeared this year. Common beliefs suggest different political leanings for different generations; Silent Generation for Republicans and Millennials for liberals. But how accurate are these beliefs? The University of Michigan Press is set to publish a book, Generational Politics in the United States: From the Silents to Gen Z and Beyond, edited by Sally Friedman & David Schultz, that delves into this pressing issue.
