Absent Mandate develops the crucial concept of policy mandates,
distinguished from other interpretations of election outcomes, and
addresses the disconnect between election issues and government
actions. Emphasizing Canadian federal elections between 1993 and
2015, the book examines the Chretien/Martin, Harper, and Trudeau
governments and the campaigns that brought them to power. Using
data from the Canadian Election Studies and other major surveys,
Absent Mandate documents the longstanding volatility in Canadian
voting behaviour. The failure of elections to provide genuine
policy mandates stimulates public discontent with the political
process and widens the gap between the promise and the performance
of Canadian democracy.
