摘要这篇导论文章开创了第一期关于地区选举的年度特刊，旨在培养一批地区选举学者，他们试图了解推动全球地区选民、地区选举结果和地区选举动态的因素。这是一项亟需的研究工作，因为在过去40年中，区域选举的领土范围和重要性大大增加，但大多数学术研究仍然集中在全国选举上。第一期特刊中的文章和报告共同使我们能够提炼出对区域选举学术的三个贡献：完善二级选举模式的范围条件；引入晴雨表选举的概念；以及洞察到每一次区域(和国家)选举在一定程度上是区域化或国有化的，无论是在结果上还是与维持结果的进程有关。
ABSTRACT This introduction article inaugurates the first annual special issue on regional elections which sets out to nurture a community of regional election scholars who seek to understand the factors driving regional voters, regional election outcomes, and regional electoral dynamics across the globe. This is a much-needed research effort given that the territorial scope and importance of regional elections have increased considerably over the past four decades yet most scholarship remains focused on national elections. Collectively the articles and reports presented in this first special issue enable us to distil three contributions to the scholarship on regional elections: a refinement on the scope conditions of the second-order election model; the introduction of the concept of barometer elections; and the insight that each regional (and national) election is regionalized or nationalized to a certain extent, either in outcome and/or in relation to the processes that sustain the outcome.
