In addition, diffusion appears within EP factions and transnational party organizations independently of the success/loss of the sender. It discusses whether and how (1) migration may be a cause of terrorism, (2) terrorism may influence natives' attitudes towards immigration and their electoral preferences and (3) terrorism may lead to more restrictive migration policies and how these in turn may serve as effective counter-terrorism tools. This study leverages population registry data from Sweden to examine whether immigrants who live in areas with a high concentration of ethnic minorities are more or less likely to be nominated for political office. There has been a lively debate about the economic and cultural-based drivers of support for populism.

At the same time, the views of disabled citizens are rarely more congruent with the positions of disabled candidates than those of non-disabled candidates, except on healthcare spending. The findings show that citizens of consolidated democracies continue to endorse self-governance. The study shows across three pre-registered survey experiments that explanations are ineffective when other speakers offer counter-explanations that focus on the official's potential ulterior motives. The author addresses this question by examining parliamentary debates in the UK House of Commons. It finds that there is little room for cross-border diffusion as successful parties stick to their old program. They argue, further, that policies allowing schools to select all their students on the basis of their parents’ religious affiliation cannot be justified. The success of protests depends on whether they favorably affect public opinion: nonviolent resistance can win public support for a movement, but regimes counter by framing protest as violent and instigated by outsiders. In experiments, they find that local party leaders most prefer nominating candidates who are similar to typical co-partisans, not centrists. ‘@kindle.com’ emails can be delivered even when you are not connected to wi-fi, but note that service fees apply. Empirical studies show that many governments gear the provision of goods and services towards their ethnic peers. These findings extend to the cyber realm a recent trend that views anger as a primary mechanism linking exposure to terrorism with militant preferences. In localities to which school inspectors could travel by rail, a larger share of children attended permanent public schools and took classes in nation-building subjects such as geography and history. In conclusion, all three studies point in the same direction: economic voting decreases with time in office. The historical development of rules of debate in the UK House of Commons raises an important puzzle: why do members of parliament (MPs) impose limits on their own rights? The models are linear regression models. Cambridge Core - British Journal of Political Science - Volume 51 - Issue 1. Using fine-grained geographic data on ethnic demographics, the study finds support for the argument's implications in the local incidence of infant mortality. These results imply that elected officials enjoy less leeway for their actions than existing work allows, and highlight important tensions concerning the relationship between elite behavior and accountability processes. These results have important implications for political representation and voters–elite linkages.

This article bridges the gap by using recent developments in political theory to enrich empirical research and extend the study of tolerance to contexts beyond liberal democracies, such as authoritarian regimes. Support for repressing a nonthreatening out-group is at least as large as support for repressing a threatening in-group. This study contributes to discussions about citizen support of democracy by (1) analyzing new cross-national survey data in 18 European countries that facilitate assessments of the temporal and geographical generalizability of previous findings, (2) disentangling age, cohort and period effects, thereby aligning the analytical methods with the theoretical arguments and (3) transparently reporting all evidence derived from pre-registered analyses to avoid cherry-picked findings. It shows that individuals who grew up in localities that were exposed to more state-sponsored violence in the late 1960s are less trusting of national political leaders and more critical of the country's political system today. The study exploits the fact that two-voter households moving in together right before an election are comparable to those moving in together right after the election. The article illustrates the measurement method by examining changes in study participants' views on US fiscal policy resulting from the composition of the small discussion groups to which they were randomly assigned. However, few studies have analysed whether citizens reason in principled or pragmatic ways on different issues. The authors use comparative data on portfolio design reforms in nine Western European countries since the 1970s to demonstrate how the design of government portfolios changes over time.

Recent studies of ethnic favoritism find that presidents' ethnic peers and home regions enjoy advantages, yet cannot disentangle whether goods are provided to entire regions or co-ethnic individuals. Moreover, given the choice between a more centrist and more extreme candidate, they strongly prefer extremists: Democrats do so by about 2 to 1 and Republicans by 10 to 1. The results highlight the importance of social norms and the household's essential role as a proximate social network that increases turnout. The findings indicate that only lethal cyber terrorism triggers strong support for retaliation. This might lead voters to hold experienced governments more accountable for economic conditions. This article falls broadly into the third category, offering a consensus-oriented explanation of the historical development of parliamentary rules. Using survey data from Canada, Finland, Germany and the United Kingdom, this article shows that deterioration of centrist parties’ valence image is followed by a collapse of their vote shares. Journal of Common Market Studies, 33 (1995), 526–51; Liesbet Hooghe and Gary Marks, ‘The Making of a Polity: The Struggle over European Integration’ in Herbert Kitschelt, Peter Lange, Gary Marks and John Stephens, eds, Continuity and Change in Contemporary Capitalism (Cambridge: This article demonstrates that strong ruling parties are much rarer than is typically assumed. The findings have important implications for local integration policies as well as refugee placement policies, as many countries consider local context when resettling refugees. A large literature claims that such policies are surprisingly popular and have few electoral costs. As a result, it is not clear how often ruling parties are actually strong and capable of carrying out important functions. The results have important implications, especially given the growing politicization of same-sex relations and changing media consumption habits across Africa. The analysis shows that principled justifications are not tied to particular issues. Holding elected officials accountable for their behavior in office is a foundational task facing citizens.

Secondly, a quasi-experiment demonstrated that assimilationists who were interviewed after Wilders' conviction indicated less support than those who were interviewed before the verdict and compared to a pre-test. This article explores the importance of historical Muslim trade in explaining urban growth and decline in the run-up to the Industrial Revolution. Drawing on research from psychology, specifically the notion of negativity bias and the sequencing of negative and positive information, this article argues that negative immigration frames undermine welfare support, while positive frames have little or no effect. Findings also confirm that anger bridges exposure to cyber terrorism and retaliation, rather than psychological mechanisms such as threat perception or anxiety as other studies propose. Riot police and military forces dispersed the protesters using clubs and water cannons, and several opposition politicians were beaten. The design of the social environment inevitably makes some choices easier than others. International Scientific Journal & Country Ranking.

The analysis confirms that the results are not driven by selection effects, and that the relationship is unique to LGBTQ support but not other social attitudes. Using proxies for regime vulnerability and an instrument for US military aid, the study shows that military aid increases anti-regime violence in new regimes (particularly new democracies) and in all personalist regimes. The findings reveal that disabled citizens and candidates are more supportive of healthcare and general public spending, even within parties. It starts by explaining the underlying logic of the veto players approach and describing the specific derivation of the rules for the construction of the rigidity index, which aggregates all institutional provisions in a logically consistent way. The results are inconsistent with the ‘law of small-group polarization’, the typical result found in small-group research; instead, the authors observe patterns of latent and policy-specific persuasion consistent with the aspirations of deliberation. In cross-national analyses of authoritarian multiparty elections from 1946 to 2017, the study finds that state territorial control increases the likelihood of large victories. The authors assemble a pooled time-series data set for monthly support for ruling parties from fifteen European countries and treat austerity packages as intervention variables to the underlying popularity series.

Lastly, an instrumental variables design shows that autocratic party success negatively impacts democratic survival and quality. Using time-series analysis, this permits the careful tracking of the impact of austerity packages over time. High-capacity rulers can rely on local agents and institutions to subtly manipulate elections, for instance by controlling the media or inhibiting the work of domestic election monitors throughout the territory while staying clear of costly manipulation such as election violence. This study takes an exploratory approach and analyses the determinants of principled versus pragmatic reasoning in direct democracy, in which citizens make direct policy decisions at the ballot box. In addition, democratic institutions that disadvantage new parties and actors benefit autocratic parties. Description: The British Journal of Political Science is a broadly based journal aiming to cover developments across a wide range of countries and specialisms. This article proposes a new statistical method to measure persuasion within small groups, and applies this approach to a large-scale randomized deliberative experiment. Beyond the still-prevailing domestic context, ‘learning from cultural reference groups’ in a region is most important. As such, the aggregate level of political interest of an electorate – macrointerest – is an essential commodity in a democracy, and understanding the forces that change macrointerest is important for diagnosing the health of a democracy. Note: the response variables are indicators of political interest, interest in the election outcome and political knowledge. Contributions are drawn from all fields of political science (including political theory, political behaviour, public … The authors argue that public perceptions of whether a protest is violent shift based on the framing of the types of action and the identities of participants in those actions.

By analyzing environmental issue emphasis in party manifestos, the authors find direct transnational dependencies and indirect spillover effects among the parties' saliency strategies. The model's functional form accommodates tests of substantive hypotheses found in the small-group literature. Their sample consists of a unique data base that combines biographical information on German MPs with topic-coded parliamentary questions for the period 1998 to 2013. Where government co-ethnics are in the majority, public goods benefit all locals regardless of their ethnic identity. 3 Mark A. Kayser, ‘Trade and the Timing of Elections’, British Journal of Political Science, 36 (2006), 437-57. The effect of positive framing is considerably weaker and does not strengthen welfare support in any of the three countries. Hans Baerwald,Party Politics in Japan (Winchester, The main empirical contributions are twofold. To promote good governance, citizens can inform governments directly and routinely about the implementation of policies and the delivery of public services. Individuals take less notice of positive frames, and the effect of such frames is further undermined by the previous exposure to negative frames, which tend to stick longer in people's minds. This dispute is due to the misuse of independent and dependent variables and inappropriate methodology. It then explains why the lack of constitutional rigidity is a necessary but not sufficient condition for significant constitutional amendments in democratic countries. The paper argues for a causal interpretation of these findings, which are robust for the share of children in permanent schools and suggestive for the content of the curriculum. The author argues that these differential effects are conditional on censorship of queer representation from certain mediums. 4 In the end, despite an international and domestic backlash against the regime, the incumbent remained in power. This article focuses on China's resource-related development projects, which have been considered controversial due to the relative lack of conditionality. The article distinguishes between three dimensions: (1) threat of harm, (2) bearing of arms and (3) identity of protesters. They identify conscious learning, rather than mere imitation or independent decision making, as the diffusion mechanism at work. The implications of relative group-based economics are important for understanding Brexit and the economic sources of support for populism more broadly. Does enhanced descriptive representation lead to substantive representation? This deterioration of support was found among the entire group of assimilationists, regardless of whether they voted for Wilders. During the Great Recession, governments across the continent implemented austerity policies.

Yet, in line with saliency-based theories, electoral competition mutes the diffusion of electoral strategies domestically. Surprisingly, social out-groups are not perceived as more violent, but respondents favor repressing them anyway. The article also finds some evidence that this effect is further amplified for people who hold anti-immigrant and anti-welfare attitudes or feel economically insecure. To better understand the conditions under which diffusion occurs, this article argues that three heuristics – availability, representativeness and anchoring – shape parties' efforts to gather information (from elsewhere), leading to differing diffusion effects.

A review of the empirical literature on the migration–terrorism nexus indicates that (1) there is little evidence that more migration unconditionally leads to more terrorist activity, especially in Western countries, (2) terrorism has electoral and political (but sometimes short-lived) ramifications, for example, as terrorism promotes anti-immigrant resentment and (3) the effectiveness of stricter migration policies in deterring terrorism is rather limited, while terrorist attacks lead to more restrictive migration policies. Despite a growing interest in British Political Development and the institutional changes of nineteenth-century UK politics, the academic literature has remained largely silent on this topic. Models 1, 3 and 5 include respondent fixed effects, while Models 2, 4 and 6 include municipality fixed effects and a set of individual-level controls (gender, age, income and education level). Finally, the framing of the issue during the campaign significantly affects moral versus pragmatic justifications. An interested and engaged electorate is widely believed to be an indicator of democratic health. Using a global sample of dictatorships from 1946–2008, the author shows that most ruling parties are unable to survive the death or departure of the founding leader. Autocrats use repression to deter opposition. Does exposure to cyber terrorism prompt calls for retaliatory military strikes? The study provides ground-breaking insights into the role of disability in policy preferences and political representation while also highlighting broader implications of how the descriptive–substantive representation link is analysed. Comparative analyses of party policy diffusion are only just emerging. Whereas extant theories emphasize radical reinvention and outsider struggle, the author argues that success is instead about maintaining ruling-party advantages into the democratic period. Their method separately measures persuasion in a latent (left–right) preference space and in a topic-specific preference space.

This article argues that preference architecture constitutes a fundamental challenge to the justificatory basis of Libertarian Paternalism. It also uses a measure of debate influence, based on the degree to which words used by one legislator are adopted by other members, to show that female ministers also increase the influence of female backbenchers. Yet in some (but not all) countries, there is evidence of a growing number of ‘democrats in name only’, particularly among the young generation. Review this journal Show reviews. A key finding in the literature on authoritarian regimes is that leaders frequently rely on ruling parties to stay in power, but the field lacks systematic ways to measure autocratic party strength. Cambridge : Cambridge Univ. This article provides an overview of the literature on the relationship between terrorism and migration. Does the importance of the economy change during a government's time in office? Governments arguably become more responsible for current economic conditions as their tenure progresses.

Specifically, they show that portfolios are changed frequently (on average about once a year) and that such shifts are more likely after changes in the prime ministership or the party composition of the government. While strong parties may be key to durable authoritarianism, relatively few parties are truly strong. These findings suggest a political logic behind these reforms based on the preferences and power of political parties and politicians.
