Political attention and the substance of legislative reform (C07*)

该项目旨在应用自动人脸检测和人脸识别来分析会议录像。这就可以产生一个衡量立法者出席议会的具体提案，其中出席率表明政治行为体对个别问题的重视程度。特定提案的显着性措施是用来调查显着性的看法影响讨价还价的互动在议会阶段，因此，改革建议的实质内容的程度。对于实证应用，我们研究了巴登-符滕贝格从2006年开始的三个立法时期。

The project aims to apply automatic face detection and face recognition to analyze parliamentary video recordings. This allows generating a proposal-specific measure of the parliamentary attendance of legislators, where attendance indicates the level of salience attributed to individual issues by political actors. The proposal-specific salience measure is used to investigate the degree to which salience perceptions influences bargaining interactions at the parliamentary stage and, hence, the substance of reform proposals. For the empirical application, we study the Landtag Baden-Württemberg in three legislative periods, from 2006 onwards.
