Abstract
Political orientations and behavior are commonly explained in one of two ways: as either symbolic politics, i.e., by values learned early in life, or situational politics, i.e., by current conditions or situations. This case study of the siting of a low-level nuclear waste facility integrates the two theoretical approaches into a single empirical model to compare their relative effects on political attitudes and behavior. The authors find that both help to explain environmental orientations and protest activities.
