Voting in Old and New Democracies (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Gunther, Richard; Moreno, Alejandro; Magalhães, Pedro C.; Beck, Paul A.

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Unlike most studies that focus their attention on established democracies or countries exclusively within one world region, this book presents a rigorous and innovative analysis of voting in elections in both old and new democracies in 18 countries on five continents between 1992 and 2007. Including new factors that have been neglected in previous studies of electoral politics, such as sociopolitical values and the influence of media, personal discussion, and organizational intermediaries, this book goes beyond voting to examine reactions to elections and their role in democratic politics.
