Overview of Indian Youth and Electoral Politics: An Emerging Engagement Book

Indian Youth and Electoral Politics studies the significant relationship between Indian youth and electoral politics in the country. The book answers many pertinent questions: Does a young candidate matter to the young voters? Do youth vote more enthusiastically if there are young candidates contesting elections? Contrary to popular notions, there is an increased interest in electoral politics amongst the Indian youth. But when it comes to voting, there is a lower participation.The book looks at the level of awareness of the youth about political issues and analyzes youth interest and participation in electoral politics. It also points out that a large percentage of Indian youth would be willing to take up politics as their career choice. However there are differences in level of youth interest and electoral participation along gender, locality and various such social variables.Table of Contents:PrefaceIntroductionAwareness on Political Issues Vibha AttriInterest in Politics and Political Participation Kinjal Sampat and Jyoti MishraThe Voting Pattern Sanjay KumarYoung Candidates and Young Voters Jyoti MishraIssues of Electoral Reforms Shreyas SardesaiPolitics as a Career: Perception and Choice Sanjay KumarAppendix I: Survey Questionnaire: Youth and Politics Survey 2011Appendix II: Who Were Interviewed during the Survey: The Social ProfileAppendix III: Opinion and Attitudes: The Basic FindingsIndex
