Political cultures are shaped, not of broader cultural forces, but of individual subjective perceptions gleaned from a limited variety and quantity of interactions with the structures and processes of politics. These perceptions produce expectations, assumptions, choices, and incentives concerning the functioning of politics, all of which comprise political cultures. In this model, political cultures manifest themselves not in terms of national political cultures, but rather of political cultural subgroupings based on differentia lperspectives on politics (e.g.socioeconomic, demographic, regional...). The book concludes with discussions of the model and of its implications for research.
