  • Public opinion backlash in response to party messages: A case for party press releases

    Open Access•Alexandra Feddersen, James Adams et al.•ARTICLE•Electoral Studies•2022•Cited by: 3•References: 31

    Empirical studies report only weak and inconsistent evidence that citizens react to parties' policy statements in election manifestos. We extend this research to analyze citizens' reactions to party messages published in press releases. We code over 1500 press releases about migration policy that Swiss parties released between 2007 and 2017, and we analyze how citizens adjusted their policy views in response to parties' stated positions. We ident…

  • Electoral Systems and Issue Polarization

    James F Adams, Nathan J Rexford et al.•CHAPTER•Oxford Handbook of Electoral…•2018

    This chapter reviews theoretical and empirical research pertaining to the question: How do electoral systems influence parties’ programmatic incentives, that is, the policy positions party elites present to the public? More specifically, it discusses whether electoral systems influence the diversity of party policy positions, measured via the degree of party system polarization. It emphasizes electoral laws’ permissiveness or proportionality, def…

  • A Unified Theory of Party Competition: A Cross-National Analysis Integrating Spatial and Behavioral Factors

    Open Access•James Adams, James F Adams et al.•BOOK•Unified Theory of Party Competition•2005•Cited by: 30

    This book integrates spatial and behavioral perspectives - in a word, those of the Rochester and Michigan schools - into a unified theory of voter choice and party strategy. The theory encompasses both policy and non-policy factors, effects of turnout, voter discounting of party promises, expectations of coalition governments, and party motivations based on policy as well as office. Optimal (Nash equilibrium) strategies are determined for alterna…

  • The Geometry of Voting Cycles

    Open Access•James Adams, James F Adams et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Theoretical Politics•2000•Cited by: 4•References: 24

    It is well known that when all voters in an electorate have preferences consistent with a single underlying dimension, then the electorate's aggregate preferences must be transitive. However, analyses of historical elections suggest that voters frequently view political alternatives (parties and candidates) arrayed along not one, but two principal dimensions. Building on earlier work by Feld and Grofman, we develop a simple geometric method to re…
