20.500.12556/RUL-138694 Positioning of individual and the mobilisation potential of political discussion networks In the article, we discuss how the political communication and interpersonal influence found in discussion networks add to fragmentation of the political space and the strengthening of political parties at the extremes of the political continuum. To this end, we analyse the mobilisation potential held by discussion networks of people who position themselves on the margins of the left–right political spectrum and compare them with the networks of those positioned in the centre and those who do not align themselves politically. The analysis focuses on four features of discussion networks: size, homogeneity, frequency of political discussion, and frequency of trying to persuade others. The results of the analysis show the most extensive mobilisation potential is found among people in the centre of the political continuum, while people on the far right and far left have networks that are the basis of intense political communication with people holding different political views but lack opportunities for the broad network dissemination of their political views and attitudes V članku odgovarjamo na vprašanje, kako diskusijska omrežja, v katerih se odvijajo procesi politične komunikacije in medsebojenga vplivanja, prispevajo k fragmentaciji političnega prostora in h krepitvi političnih strank na skrajnih polih političnega kontinuuma. V ta namen analiziramo mobilizacijski potencial diskusijskih omrežij, ki so značilna za ljudi, ki se uvrščajo na skrajne položaje na levo-desni politični orentaciji, in jih primerjamo z omrežji tistih, ki se uvrščajo v sredino ali pa se ne uvrščajo. Analiza se osredotoča na naslednje značilnosti diskusijskih omrežij: velikost, homogenost, pogostost diskutiranja o političnih zadevah in pogostost prepričevanja drugače mislečih. Rezultati analize kažejo, da je najbolj ekstenziven mobilizacijski potencial značilen za ljudi na sredini političnega kontinuuma, medtem ko ljudje na desnem in levem polu posedujejo omrežja, ki so osnova za intenzivno politično komunikacijo, a ne omogočajo široke omrežne diseminacije političnih stališč diskusijska omrežja levo-desno politična orientacija discussion networks left-right political orientation true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2022-08-09 14:47:52 2022-08-09 14:47:58 2022-09-15 04:17:04 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2022 0 0 Str. 77–94, 168 št. 1 Letn. 59 2022 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova NiDoloceno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2022-01-01 [316.77:32]:077.5 0040-3598 10.51936/tip.59.1.77-94 108465411 Iglic_Positioning_of_individual_and_the_mobilistaion_potential.pdf Iglic_Positioning_of_individual_and_the_mobilistaion_potential.pdf 1 333BCFE7DCD471EB9ABF4789D20ED29E 00486021e0efef2dff14c430eecf59a09a334087378d85a7b32510c1682aac4b 6093668b-17e1-11ed-8aca-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=159101 Fakulteta za družbene vede 0 0 0
