摘要
This article examines the "spiral of silence" in public opinion. Derived by Elisabeth Noelle-Neumann from the work of Tocqueville and others, this thesis offers an explanation of change in global public opinion. The author critiques the Noelle-Neumann view and finds that, while Tocqueville advances a similar hypothesis, unlike Noelle-Neumann, he ties his account to the structure of political relationships polity.
