The politics of the Brexit debate abroad: An analysis of parliamentary questions on Brexit in Belgian parliaments
The Brexit referendum in June 2016 marked a critical point for European integration and has quickly attracted attention from scholars. However, the literature so far has focused on the UK and the EU level, neglecting the symmetric risk exposures and the diverging views around Brexit within the Member states. This article aims at contributing to filling this gap by analyzing to what extent the attention paid to Brexit differs across parliaments in…
Prompting Legislative Agreement and Loyalty: What Role for Intra-Party Democracy
Existing research often suggests that a greater degree of internal democracy within parties could weaken party unity.

The article uses data collected in the framework of the PartiRep Comparative MP Survey; and of the Political Party Database (PPDB). The study includes 796 parliamentarians …

Assessing Party Membership Figures: The Mapp Dataset
Assessments of party decline and decline of traditional forms of political participation often rely on the argument of party membership decline. Most studies analysing trends in party membership over time focus on aggregate country-level data at a few points in time. While they allow grasping general membership trends, they are not without shortcomings. This article presents the Members and Activists of Political Parties (MAPP) dataset related to…
