Electoral Behaviour

Four Volume Set
Edited by:


July 2008 | 1 648 pages | SAGE Publications Ltd
This four-volume collection provides a rich overview of one of the core areas of political science research: voting. The quantitative study of voting behavior (psephology) in particular has developed as a highly specialized field since the 1980s and has spawned a vast literature from a wide array of theoretical perspectives and methodological approaches. This set maps out the development of psephology in the post-war period to its current state, and covers the following broad themes:
  • Historical evolution of voting studies
  • Sociological models
  • Cognition and the voter calculus
  • Electoral systems
  • The electoral context
  • Debates and methodology
