Faithful confidants or fickle coat-changers? Audience's perceptions of celebrities in political campaigns before the first direct presidential election in the Czech Republic

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

As the first of its kind, the direct vote for the Czech presidency in 2013 was an exceptional event. In terms of political campaigning, an interesting aspect of the election was in the unprecedentedly high involvement of celebrities. Based on data from focus group research, the aim of this article is to analyse audiences' perceptions of, and attitudes towards, the presence of celebrities in the campaign. Using Bourdieu's field theory, two different attitudes of the respondents towards the blending of the field of politics with the field of popular culture are identified - the strict rejection of this blending and its acceptance as part of the contemporary conditions of political communication. Furthermore, differences in audience's perception between the inhabitants of different localities are explored with attention to their possible impacts on people's trust in celebrities' political behaviour and in the functioning of politics as such.
