How can political actors shape voter turnout?

该项目旨在通过分析候选人和政党动员支持者和遣散诽谤者的策略，来调查个人投票率差异的原因。该项目将比较西班牙、墨西哥和印度政党和候选人的动员和复员战略。预期结果包括更好地了解复员人员、重新确认的弃权者和活跃的选民，这些人正在研究之中。这些发现将增进对这些公民动机的理解，这是一个日益引起学术兴趣的话题，也将为寻求加强治理干预设计的澳大利亚政策制定者提供信息。

This project aims to investigate what explains variations on individual's turnout rates by analysing the strategies employed by candidates and parties to mobilise their supporters and demobilise their detractors. The project will compare the mobilisation and demobilisation strategies of the parties and candidates in Spain, Mexico and India. Expected outcomes include an improved understanding of the demobilised, the re-affirmed abstainers and the activated voters, which are under-studied. The findings will enhance understanding of motivations of those citizens, a topic of growing scholarly interest, and also inform Australian policy makers seeking to enhance the design of their governance interventions.
