Omens of an early winter: The proportional vote and the changing Italian party system
European Journal of Political Research - Tập 34 - Trang 35-61 - 1998
The proportional arena has been designed as a buffer and corrective for the hard verdicts of the new Italian plurality system. However, the political impact of this arena is much deeper than its purely electoral role. It measures the loadings of single parties within coalitions and, subsequently, influences their interactions and bargaining tactics. The elections of April 1996 clearly show the eff......
Targeting the lobbying effort: The importance of local government lobbying
European Journal of Political Research - Tập 34 - Trang 301-327 - 1998
Local government is subject to extensive lobbying, which is reasonable given the greater importance of the local public sector in large welfare states. Most of the scholarly attention has been focused on lobbying at the national level, often addressing the impact of interest groups on public policies. This article discusses a decision-making model where interest groups optimize their lobbying effo......

A new political system
European Journal of Political Research - Tập 31 - Trang 125-146 - 1997

There are in fact three types of semi-presidential regimes: the president can be a mere figurehead, or he may be all-powerful or again he can share his power with parliament. Using four parameters -- the content of the constitution, tradition and circumstances, the composition ......
Voter turnout at the British General Election of 1992: Rational choice, social standing or political efficacy?
European Journal of Political Research - Tập 33 - Trang 263-283 - 1998
Analyses of turnout in British general elections fall broadly into two camps: those based on constituency-level data, and those based on survey data. The former stress the importance of local context, while the latter stress personal characteristics and viewpoints. Underlying both are a range of theories purporting to explain turnout. However, to date, there has been little systematic attempt to a......
Left-right political scales
European Journal of Political Research - Tập 31 - Trang 147-157 - 1997
Although left-right scales are an inherent feature of much cross-national research, they have necessarily been created on a somewhat ad hoc basis, since the empirical foundation for valid cross-national scales rarely exists. This paper seeks to provide such a foundation by using judgements of party ideological position which are both explicit and non-idiosyncratic across a wide range of countries.......
