What issues matter most to #Voters? ๐ฌ
@gefjonoff.bsky.social & @fedetrastulli.bsky.social study 6 European countries to find that different groups care about different issues--and that what people care about isnโt the same as what they think about those issues. ๐งญ๐ณ๏ธ

i.e.: 'Party families are groups of parties whose patterns of issue salience ideologically reflect their historical origins. More specifically, parties belonging to a party family will historically be the most consistent emphasisers of their core issues* within their party system' 2/2

New article out in World Politcs. We analyze how different groups react to varying programs of social democratic parties. We find less trade-offs than often assumed. Generally, more left-progressive programs increase support among social democratic potentials

Why do authoritarian-leaning leaders target womenโs and LGBTQ+ rights? Is there a systematic pattern that reaches beyond individual country cases, and how is this reflected in peopleโs attitudes and societal norms?
