尽管近年来在许多欧洲国家,区域和欧洲各级政府的重要性都有所增加,但学者和媒体对国家一级选举的关注要多于其他各级选举。多个选举领域的重要性日益增加,这表明学者们在孤立地研究单一层面时应该谨慎。认真对待选举政治的多层次结构,需要重新审视选举机构创造的激励机制如何影响选民和政党精英的行为。分析多级选举的标准方法是二阶选举(SOE)模型,其中国家选举被认为是一级选举,而其他选举是二级选举。然而,这个模型并没有提供微观机制来决定一个领域的选举如何影响另一个领域的选举,或者解释个人投票行为的变化。本书的目的是解释政党和选民在特定选举中的行为是如何受到多个选举领域存在的影响的。它为研究2011-2015年法国、德国和西班牙的欧洲、国家和地方选举提供了原始的定性和定量数据。本书考察了政党在多个选举领域的动员工作,以及个人选民在投票率、战略投票和问责制方面的决定。这本书提供了第一个系统的分析多层次选举政治在三个不同的水平跨越多个国家。
National-level elections receive more attention from scholars and the media than elections at other levels, even though in many European countries the importance of both regional and European levels of government has grown in recent years. The growing importance of multiple electoral arenas suggests that scholars should be cautious about examining single levels in isolation. Taking the multilevel structure of electoral politics seriously requires a re-examination of how the incentives created by electoral institutions affect the behaviour of voters and party elites. The standard approach to analysing multilevel elections is the second-order election (SOE) model, in which national elections are considered to be first-order elections while other elections are second order. However, this model does not provide micro mechanisms that determine how elections in one arena affect those in another, or explain variations in individual voting behaviour. The objective of this book is to explain how party and voter behaviour in a given election is affected by the existence of multiple electoral arenas. It provides original qualitative and quantitative data to examine European, national, and subnational elections in France, Germany, and Spain from 2011-2015. The volume examines party mobilization efforts across multiple electoral arenas, as well as decisions by individual voters with respect to turnout, strategic voting, and accountability. This book provides the first systematic analysis of multilevel electoral politics at three different levels across multiple countries.
