"There is only one book you need to read for a comprehensive, up-to-date overview of the field of political marketing - the 3rd edition of Political Marketing: Principles and Applications. The book not only details the latest academic studies but provides numerous real-world examples, case studies and applications for practitioners. And, of course, no one knows the field of political marketing better than Jennifer Lees-Marshment."
Professor Travis N. Ridout, Thomas S. Foley Distinguished Professor of Government and Public Policy, Washington State University, USA
"Political marketing is going through fundamental transitions as we move further into the world of instant news and grassroots activism fueled by social media. In this new world, misinformation and misdirection have been upsetting social and political norms. Jennifer Lees-Marshment’s new edition comes at a critical time, giving us highly relevant case studies and sharp, perceptive analyses of today’s politics and political marketing. This is an excellent addition to the literature and is highly recommended."
Emeritus Professor Dennis Johnson, George Washington University, USA
"The strategies, tools, and tactics offered by the practice of political marketing continue to influence and shape both election campaigns and approaches to governing. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding how political marketing works and why it matters."
Associate Professor Anna Esselment, University of Waterloo, Canada
"Led by a pre-eminent scholar - who has personally developed more than her fair share of the concepts - this book covers the key ideas that anyone studying the field of political marketing needs to know. The examples are numerous and fascinating, helping the book do a great job of illustrating the importance of political marketing. I’d wholeheartedly recommend this book."
Associate Professor Neil Bendle, Ivey Business School, Canada
"It is almost impossible to imagine modern politics without political marketing, even though many people in politics and many people who study it are still reluctant to recognise that marketing is what they are doing. This updated edition of an indispensable textbook will help students explore all aspects of an activity that is central to the way the world works these days - and, perhaps, to understand it better than many of the politicians who are involved in it!"
Professor Roger Mortimore, Professor of Public Opinion & Political Analysis, Kings College London, UK
"A comprehensive and accessible book which covers both theory and practice, providing students with academic knowledge but directing them to apply it, and discussing the skills to acquire to enter professions related to political marketing."
