Why do some countries manage to 'get their elections right' while others fail? What explains changes in election integrity over time? And does election integrity matter for democracy? This project aims to address these questions by developing an original theoretical framework explaining changes in election integrity over time and the consequences for democratisation. The project will empirically test the theoretical framework with a mixed-method approach that combines quantitative statistical analysis and in-depth country case studies using data on election integrity in over 900 elections from over 100 electoral democracies and autocracies around the world between 1974 and 2012.

为什么有些国家能够“把选举搞对”，而另一些国家却失败了？如何解释选举诚信随着时间的推移而发生的变化？选举诚信对民主重要吗？该项目旨在通过发展一个原始的理论框架来解释选举诚信随时间的变化及其对民主化的影响，从而解决这些问题。该项目将采用混合方法对理论框架进行实证检验，该方法结合定量统计分析和深入的国家案例研究，使用1974年至2012年间全球100多个选举民主国家和独裁国家900多次选举的选举诚信数据。
