Bernard Grofman Reihenfolge der Bücher (Chronologisch)

Professors Merrill and Grofman develop a unified model that incorporates voter motivations and assesses its empirical predictions--for both voter choice and candidate strategy--in the United States, Norway, and France. The analyses show that a combination of proximity, direction, discounting, and party ID are compatible with the mildly but not extremely divergent policies that are characteristic of many two-party and multiparty electorates. All of these motivations are necessary to understand the linkage between candidate issue positions and voter preferences.

The aim of this book is to provide an overview of recent research on electoral laws and their political consequences by scholars who have helped shape the field.
