The New Political culture, which began to take shape in the 1970s, continues to challenge many assumptions of traditional politics, especially on issues of environmentalism, growth management, gay rights, and abortion. Concerned mostly with home, consumption, and lifestyle, the New Politics emerges fully in cities with more highly educated citizens, higher incomes, and more high-tech service occupations. Leadership does not come from parties, unions, or ethnic groups but rather shifts from issue to issue: leaders on abortion are distinct from leaders on environmental issues. Based on data gathered by the Fiscal Austerity and Urban Innovation Project, the most extensive study of local government in the world to date, this book provides an explicit analysis of the social structural characteristics that encourage or discourage the New Political culture.

... More importantly in terms of sustainability, many EU officials carry on working towards, fighting for and implementing a sustainability agenda: by doing so, its linked ideology manages to recreate itself in a 'post-ideological' age (Zizek, 1989). This 'post-ideological' age corroborate the definition provided by Clark (1998Clark ( , 2018, who indicates the presence of a New Political Culture (NPC) characterised by a form of practically-oriented politics guided more by issues than by traditional distinctions between left-right, liberal and conservative positions. The behaviour of the EU in terms of sustainability can be explained as well by NPC in the sense that its sustainability policy seems to be more driven by issues than by an overall coherent policy. ...

... Multicultural globalization promotes a recognition of genuine global diversity, cultural pluralism and the equal worth of diverse identities and languages (Korobeynikova and Vodopiyanova, 2020). While economic integration, technological advancements and political globalization push societies toward a more unified global system, cultural diversity remains one of the most essential and enduring aspects of human life (Bennett, 2017;Clark, 2018;Healey and Stepnick, 2019). This duality has sparked significant debates on how to balance global interconnectedness with the need to safeguard and celebrate the uniqueness of individual cultures (Bhatia, 2018;David, 2017;Johnston-Guerrero, 2016;Macy, 2021). ...
