Using surveys, case studies, in-depth interviews, databases of nasty politics, and large social media datasets, I the book shows that across all three countries the public generally doesn't like nasty politics. But it can be a way to signal toughness to voters, which is especially important in threatening times. For politicians, going nasty can also be a way to grab attention. This is particularly helpful for outsider politicians who are looking to disrupt the status quo, opposition politicians trying to make their voice heard, or incumbents losing power. The effects of nasty politics on democracy are mixed. It can be a legitimate tool for the powerless to gain attention. Or it can be a cynical ploy for incumbents to maintain their hold on power.
