The Civic Cultureat 50: Change, Continuity and Challenges in the Federal Republic of Germany
Much political science is ephemeral. Academic studies of government spawn countless fads and fashions that vanish in a time interval that varies somewhere between a scholarly conference and a gener
The Civic Culture and Unified Germany: An Overview
In this article we attempt to examine what has happened to the Civic Culture paradigm in the past 50 years with particular focus on Germany. We first discuss the impact of the research and its core findings for the Federal Republic. Second, we focus on the issue of 'inner unity'. Third, we present data on the development of unified Germany's political culture since the 1990 unification. We examine the influence over time of the major explanatory …
The Shrinking Elephants: The 2009 Election and the Changing Party System
While the 2009 election resulted in a familiar governing coalition, the dealignment of the party systems continued. Support for the once-major parties dropped to historic lows as did turnout. This article delves into the factors underlying this dealignment process. In addition to familiar demandside variables-social structure, values, and interests-particular attention is given to the supply side of the dealignment equation: the role of the parti…
The Tipping Point: The 2005 Election and the De-consolidation of the German Party System
This article develops the thesis that the past quarter-century of electoral volatility in Germany reached a critical tipping point at the 2005 election. The two major parties of the Bonn Republic are now at their lowest combined share of the popular vote since the Federal Republic's founding in 1949. Electoral necessity and not, as in 1966, elite choice forced them into a grand coalition with little programmatic consensus. Their respective demogr…
Political Culture in Unified Germany: The First Ten Years
After ten years of research on Germany's postunification politicalculture, there is no scholarly consensus on the critical questions ofeast-west differences, the impact of unification on western Germanculture, and developmental trends in the two regions. These questionshave become more acute in the light of decreased eastern economicgrowth, high unemployment, and growing evidence of aradical right-wing subculture in the new states

The West German Electorate and the Party System: Continuity and Change in the 1980s
Changes in voting behavior and the party system in the three federal elections since 1980 indicate that West German politics have entered a new transitional phase. The periods of CDU hegemony, 1949–1969, and two party competition, 1972–1980, have passed. Both major parties have lost support, turnout has declined, ticket-splitting has increased and New Politics issues such as the environment, disarmament and civil liberties have become salient to …

Party System, Social Structure, and Competitive Politics in West Germany: An Ecological Analysis of the 1972 Federal Election
For the first time in a quarter century of electoral politics, West German voters in 1972 gave a clear and decisive majority to a distinctly center-left government. As in 1969, the outcome indicates that the relationship between mass political style and regime norms, i.e., a competitive party system and alternating majoritarian party government, continues to grow stronger. Yet the 1972 campaign and election also saw the emergence of new elements …
