The implications of the personalization of politics are necessarily
widespread and can be found across many different aspects of
contemporary democracies. Personalization should influence the way
campaigns are waged, how voters determine their preferences, how
officials (e.g., MPs) and institutions (e.g., legislatures and
governments) function, and the place and operations of political
parties in democratic life. However, in an effort to quantify the
precise degree of personalization over time and to uncover the
various causes of personalization, the existing literature has paid
little attention to many of the important questions regarding the
consequences of personalization. While the chapters throughout this
volume certainly document the extent of personalization, they also
seek to address some fundamental questions about the nature of
personalization, how it is manifested, and its consequences for
political parties, governance, representation, and the state of
democracy more generally. Indeed, one of the primary objectives of
this volume is to speak to a very broad audience about the
implications of personalization. Those interested in election
campaigns, voting, gender, governance, legislative behaviour, and
political parties will all find something of value in the
contributions that follow.
