[en] The paper examines poll survey data to see if the way people invest in public envolvement is different between thos consider themselves to the left and those who consider themselves to the right. It appears that the difference beween rightl and left is small and that the main difference is bewteen those who choose a position and those who refuse to choose or do not answer. Rather interestingly, people that see themselves at the center ressembles strongly to non respondants, as if the center was a "refuge value".
