关于选民投票率的跨国差异，有两种说法存在争议。一个强调机构和选举属性的作用，而另一个强调文化和历史因素。作者评估了这两种论点的优点。他们首先应用R. W.杰克曼在20世纪80年代的投票率，扩大工业国家的样本，包括三个新的民主国家最近的独裁历史：希腊，葡萄牙和西班牙。然后，他们研究了文化变量对选民投票率的潜在影响。作者的结论是，制度的论点优于传统的政治参与的文化帐户。
There are two contending accounts of cross-national variation in voter turnout rates. One emphasizes the role of institutions and electoral attributes, whereas the other stresses cultural and historical factors. The authors evaluate the merits of these two arguments. They first apply the model developed by R. W. Jackman to turnout rates during the 1980s, expanding the sample of industrial states to include three newer democracies with recent authoritarian histories: Greece, Portugal, and Spain. They then examine the potential impact of cultural variables on voter turnout rates. The authors conclude that the institutional argument outperforms the cultural account of conventional political participation.
