Abstract:

What is politics according to citizens? This thesis centers around that question and seeks to contribute to our understanding of citizens’ conceptions of politics. It discusses and investigates variations in, origins of, and consequences of con-ceptions of politics.
The theoretical perspectives direct interest to three levels of politics. The first concerns the political macro-level and political culture. The second takes an in-terest in the meso-level of politics and different subcultures. The third focuses on the micro-level, more specifically on individual citizens’ political participation.
