Description

Globalisation and Domestic Politics addresses how a widely acknowledged and pervasive economic and social process and globalization affect democratic politics among both masses and elites.

It inquires into the extent to which, and how, globalization affects the political attitudes and behaviour of ordinary citizens and the policies of political parties.

Chapters discuss to what extent globalization affects the salience of left-right politics, the content ofparty programmes and promises, leadership evaluations, economic voting, electoral accountability, the influence of religion in politics, electoral turnout, political efficacy, satisfaction with democracy, and the quality of democracy.

It primarily draws on data from the Comparative Study of Electoral Systems(CSES), made up of three modules of election surveys from 44 countries and 107 elections. The Comparative Study of Electoral Systems (CSES) is a collaborative program of research among election study teams from around the world.

Participating countries include a common module of survey questions in their post-election studies.

The resulting data are deposited along with voting, demographic, district, and macro variables.

The studies are then merged into a single, free, public dataset for use in comparative study and cross-level analysis.

The set of volumes in this series is based onthese CSES modules, and the volumes address the key theoretical issues and empirical debates in the study of elections and representative democracy.

Some of the volumes will be organized around the theoretical issues raised by a particular module, while others will be thematic in their focus.

Takentogether, these volumes will provide a rigorous and ongoing contribution to understanding the expansion and consolidation of democracy in the twenty-first century. Series editors: Hans-Dieter Klingemann and Ian McAllister.
