- This primary output of an ESRC-funded programme of research (ES/J004596/1) draws on an original citizen survey, two waves of mini-focus groups, and a 12-month media content analysis. The research integrates theories and methods from International Relations and Political Psychology in order to answer questions about perceptions of security threats and their effects on political attitudes and policy preferences. Conceptually, there was substantial complexity in moving beyond “threats of the moment”, such as terrorism, to look at perceptions of everyday threats (e.g. burglary) providing new insights on their subsequent impact on attitudes such as intolerance and policy preferences (e.g. education spending).
