A large body of electoral studies and political party research
argues that the institutional context defines incentives that shape
citizen participation and voting choice. With the unique resources
of the Comparative Study of Electoral Systems, this book provides
the first systematic evaluation of this topic. A distinguished
international team of electoral scholars finds that the
institutional context has only a modest impact on citizen political
choices compared to individual level factors. Furthermore, the
formal institutional characteristics of electoral systems that have
been most emphasized by electoral studies researchers have less
impact than characteristics of the party system that are separate
from formal institutions. Advanced multi-level analyses demonstrate
that contextual effects are more often indirect and interactive,
and thus their effects are typically not apparent in single nation
election studies. The results have the potential to reshape our
understanding of how the institutional framework and context of
election matters, and the limits of institutional design in shaping
citizen electoral behavior.
