  abstract = { <p><span>The study of public opinion and foreign policy has a long history (Almond 1950 Converse 1964; Lippmann 1955). This history includes a long-standing debate over the utility of studying public opinion when considering international affairs (Holsti 1992; Mueller 1971; Page and Shapiro 1983, 1992, Wittkopf 1986).~<span>The dismissal of the importance of public opinion stems from the concern that the mass public knows little about foreign policy. Prominent theories about foreign policy and international</span><span>~relations give no role to publics (Krasner 1978; Mearsheimer 2001; Waltz 1979).~<span>Very few theoretical perspectives in international relations give any weight to public attitudes; neorealism, neoliberalis</span><span>m, and institutionalism provide very little space for the mass public to affect foreign policy.</span></span></span></p> },
