Using decades of public opinion data from the US, UK, Australia,
Germany and Canada, and distinguishing between three concepts -
issue ownership, performance and generalised competence - Green and
Jennings show how political parties come to gain or lose
'ownership' of issues, how they are judged on their performance in
government across policy issues and how they develop a reputation
for competence (or incompetence) over a period in office. Their
analysis tracks the major events causing people to re-evaluate
party reputations and the costs of governing which cause
electorates to punish parties in power. They reveal why, when and
how these movements in public opinion matter to elections. The
implications are important for long-standing debates about
performance and partisanship, and reveal that public opinion about
party and governing competence is, to a great extent, the product
of major shocks and predictable dynamics.
