Religious Voting in Western Democracies
This volume provides the most systematic study on the role of religion and religiosity in electoral politics in Catholic, Protestant, and religiously mixed countries across Western Europe and in the United States, from the Second World War until the second decade of the new century. The volume’s main argument is that, despite the expectations of secularization theory, religiosity remains relevant when casting votes. The book pleads the case for t…
Responsiveness when parties are “weak
Outside the US, the crucial question of how well politicians represent the preferences of voters is usually investigated at the party level. Reversing this perspective, we examine representation in Europe from the point of view of individual candidates running in national parliamentary elections. This is especially insightful in a period that seems characterized by a decline in parties’ representational capacities and an increasing personalizatio…
Where does the Coronavirus come from? On the mechanisms underlying the endorsement of conspiracy theories on the origin of Sars-CoV-2
While official science has given its answer to the question on the origin of the Coronavirus (animal to human transmission), alternative theories on human creation of the virus – purposely or inadvertently – have flourished. Those alternative theories can be easily located among the family of conspiracy theories, as they always assume some secretive activity of some groups acting on their self-interest and against the good of the many. The articl…
Twitter as a mirror of political space(s)
The literature on the nationalization of party systems has found that decentralization of authority leads to increasing territorial heterogeneity of voting behaviour. In this article, we intend to further extant knowledge on this topic by exploring whether different levels of government imply distinct representations of party competition at the citizens’ level. We do so by analysing Twitter data collected during the 2015 regional elections in fiv…
Age and Descriptive Representation in Southern Europe
This article looks at how well different age groups are represented in the parliaments of Portugal, Spain, Italy and Greece. We focus on three periods – before, during and after the ‘Great Recession’ – assuming the economic turmoil has generated new demands channelled by new parties that have recently entered parliament or have had a surge during the crisis. Data comes from mass surveys carried out in each country and from MP biographies. The fin…
Searching for comfort in religion
The impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on the lives of many is indisputable. Among the possible strategies to cope with the feeling of insecurity that comes with this, religion can play a significant role. Using first-hand data from the ResPOnsE COVID-19 rolling cross-section survey, this article shows that Italian people who reported a COVID-19 contagion in their family reported also higher religiosity both in terms of attendance at religious…
Public opinion on the Eurozone fiscal union
We investigate public attitudes toward the fiscal union: a policy advocated in official European Union documents and designed to address asynchronous economic fluctuations in the eurozone. We employ survey questions and conjoint analyses embedded in population-based panel surveys in Italy, and draw expectations from theories of tax-and-transfer schemes, public insurance, ideology, diffuse support, identity and trust. High-income right-wing indivi…
European Identity in the Context of National Identity
Renzi's Honeymoon Effect
The 2014 European Parliament (EP) election in Italy took place 15 months after the electoral earthquake of the 2013 national election and almost three months after a non-electoral change of government that saw the newly-elected secretary of centre-left Partito Democratico (Democratic Party, PD), Matteo Renzi, become Prime Minister. While some second-order election (SOE) model expectations, such as lower turnout and electoral gain by minor parties…

Intermittent abstentionism and multi-level mobilisation in Italy
This article is focused on one of the most relevant novelties in the Italian electoral market of the past decade: the emerging phenomenon of intermittent abstentionism. Rather than an increase in overall abstentionism rates, aggregate and survey data show a clear increase in the number of floating voters who swing between voting and non-voting. After a description of the characteristics of intermittent abstensionists, the article discusses the re…
Attachment to the Nation and International Relations
Since the rise of mass politics, the role national identities play in international relations has been debated. Do they produce a popular reservoir easily tapped for war or bestow dignity thereby fostering cooperation and a democratic peace? The evidence for either perspective is thin, beset by different conceptions of identity and few efforts to identify its effects independent of situational factors. Using data drawn from new national surveys i…
Changement culturel et orientations politiques chez les jeunes européens
Le concept de post-matérialisme, tel qu’Inglehart l’a défini, recouvre en fait chez les jeunes une large gamme de valeurs et d’attitudes. Ainsi l’individualisme, en tant que valeur centrale du post-matérialisme, peut être au service d’orientations politiques diverses, à gauche mais aussi à droite. Si le nationalisme ne touche qu’un dixième de la population des jeunes en Europe, ceux-ci peuvent influencer des fractions plus larges de la population…
Platforms, media and voters
The paper presents data on party platforms, political communication and public opinion in the 1996 Italian election campaign. It is shown that the electoral platforms of the two major coalitions were largely overlapping, except for some economic and social issues. The centre–right coalition seemed more inclined to adopt pro–market policies, while the platform of the Ulivo coalition was more oriented toward a social partnership approach. In the mo…
Programmi, Media E Opinione Pubblica
Dall'inaugurazione del governo Berlusconi (maggio 1994) al giuramento della compagine guidata da Prodi intercorrono solo ventiquattro mesi. Ma sono due anni caratterizzati da una densa e convulsa vicenda politica nel corso della quale si verificano tutta una serie di episodi di rilievo. Tra i più salienti spiccano: la rottura dell'alleanza di centro-destra nata alla vigilia del 27 marzo 1994 (il cosiddetto «ribaltone»); il ricorso ad un governo «…
I Programmi Elettorali E Il Ruolo Dei Mass Media
IntroduzioneSe si ripensa alla primavera dell'anno scorso, all'indomani del referendum che aprì la strada alla nuova legge elettorale, è difficile non rimanere colpiti dalla quantità e dall'intensità delle aspettative di cambiamento presenti nell'opinione pubblica, almeno per come esse venivano riflesse dai mass media
