Arguing counter to the accepted positions of political sociology, we contend that voters' decisions are best explained by the absence or presence of strong loyalties to political parties rather than by social or economic factors.

Recent research—when combined with the studies of LaPalombara, Barnes, and Zariski, and with the studies conducted by Italian po…
