In Quebec and Scotland, questions of constitutional change,
national identity, and national grievance play an important role in
the electoral calculations of political parties and voters. Taking
a strong stance on the national question can have strategic
benefits both for parties pushing for greater autonomy and for
those endorsing the status quo. In this in-depth look at issue
voting, authors Eric Belanger, Richard Nadeau, Ailsa Henderson, and
Eve Hepburn examine how the national question affects political
parties and voter behaviour in both substate nations. Through party
manifestos, interviews with legislators, and opinion survey data,
this book demonstrates that calls for constitutional change
influence political debate, competition, voter choice, and the
outcome of elections not only within Quebec and Scotland but also
across Canada and the United Kingdom. Minority nationalist parties,
the authors show, can gain support by claiming ownership of issues
with widespread public agreement, such as self-determination and
protecting the identity and interests of the nation. A
comprehensive analysis of recent electoral politics, The National
Question and Electoral Politics in Quebec and Scotland greatly
enhances our understanding of the electoral impact of substate
nationalism.
