Parties and Partisanship --References --IndexWhy do people identify with political parties? How stable are those identifications? Stable party systems, with a limited number of parties and mostly stable voter identification with a party, are normally considered significant signals of a steady democracy. Ken Kollman and John E. Jackson study changing patterns of partisanship in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia over the last 50 years in order to disentangle possible reasons for shifting partisanship and party identification. They argue that changes in partisanship can be explained by adjustments in voters' attitudes toward issues or parties; the success or failure of policies advocated by parties; or alterations in parties' positions on key issues.Chicago scholarship online.Party affiliationComparative governmentPartisanshipParty affiliation.Comparative government.Partisanship.324.2Kollman Ken1966-978958Jackson John E(John Edgar),1942-StDuBDSStDuBDSBOOK9910554261303321Dynamic partisanship2833965UNINA
