=====Elusive indeed – The mechanical versus psychological effects of electoral rules at the district level===== | |||
[https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0261379417304079 by Philipp Harfst 6/18 ScienceDirect] | |||
While electoral research has become one of political science’s most fertile areas, to date no empirical contribution has addressed the three mechanisms of the electoral chain – strategic entry, strategic voting, and the electoral system’s mechanical effect – in a unified analytical framework. This paper addresses this shortcoming by analysing the effect of electoral systems on party system size, accounting for all three mechanisms. Our study yields three major findings drawing on constituency-level data covering 462 electoral districts in Finland and Portugal between 1962 and 2011. | |||
