Struggle over Dimensionality: Party Competition in Western and Eastern Europe
This article analyzes the impact of party strategies on the issue structure, and consequently the dimensional structure, of party systems across Europe. Conceptualizing political competition in two dimensions (economic left-right and social traditionalism versus liberalism), the authors demonstrate that political parties in both Eastern and Western Europe contest the issue composition of political space. The authors argue that large, mainstream p…
The Return of ‘Social Europe: Ideas and Positions of German Parties towards the Future of European Integration
Ideas and positions of German parties towards European integration have long been characterised by the model of an economically and politically integrated state community. This general principle has been supported by a majority of delegates of all government and opposition parties, with the exception of the socialist left, from the Treaties of Rome until today. Are there now signs of strain in this cross-party consensus? This article compares the…
Clarity of Responsibility Beyond the Pocketbook: How Political Institutions Condition EU Issue Voting
One of the most influential findings of the voting behavior literature of the past two decades was the realization that the clarity of the domestic institutional context influences the relationship between economic perceptions and incumbent vote. This article extends this “clarity of responsibility” argument beyond economics to another policy field—European integration. To what extent do national political institutions mediate the extent to which…
Taking Europe To Its Extremes: Extremist Parties and Public Euroscepticism
This article revisits the age-old debate about elite—mass linkages in the European Union (EU) by examining the way in which political contexts shape individual differentiation in Euroscepticism. We argue that the growing uncertainties about the future of European integration among national publics are increasingly politicized by Eurosceptical elites on both the extreme right and left of the political spectrum. To analyse the cueing effects of the…
Who’s Cueing Whom: Mass-Elite Linkages and the Future of European Integration
The 2005 French and Dutch referendum campaigns were characterized by an alleged disconnect between pro-European political elites and Eurosceptic masses. Past evidence regarding elite-mass linkages in the context of European integration has been conflicting. Whereas some scholars argue that political elites respond to the changing preferences of their electorates, others suggest that party elites cue the mass public through a process of informatio…
