Amsterdam - 15 november Chris Aalberts - Political rap (2) Effects: Young people prefer traditional genres Young people talk about issues from these raps... When they were already interested in them Only a small group likes these songs Still the media present these raps as a means to make politics attractive for the young. Why?

Amsterdam - 15 november Chris Aalberts - Sexy politics? (1) Paradox: No proof of any effects but... Still many people believe that sexy politics is a solution to political disinterest How can we explain this paradox?

Amsterdam - 15 november Chris Aalberts - Sexy politics? (2) Young people’s perceptions on politics: Young people think that politics is important... And that it is boring Political disinterest is a bad thing For them, politics is not entertainment... It should be serious... And politicians should talk about their policies

Amsterdam - 15 november Chris Aalberts - Conclusion Politics is too important to be sexy Young people say they are not influenced That seems to be true: there is no proof of any effects Still many people believe that effects occur They believe that others are influenced Popular culture is seen as useful for disinterested people

Amsterdam - 15 november Chris Aalberts - More research… Audience research is needed: Who are the fans of political rap? Do they exist? How do they interpret those songs? Who are the friends of Jan Peter Balkenende? Why do they want to be friends with him? Who are the visitors on political debates on LowLands? Why are they there?
