The state of democracy -- Part 2. Elections, parties and candidates -- Part 3. Campaigning."This book presents a comprehensive overview of Finnish electoral democracy, expertly detailing both its typical representation of a stable European party democracy and its particularities such as, a personalized electoral system, a fragmented party system with tradition of grand government coalitions, and its sensitive geopolitical location. Using the Finnish National Election Study as a basis, it analyzes how voters act and react in an electoral democracy characterized by a high degree of competition between and within parties, yet a democracy in which the possibility for voters to hold governments accountable for their actions is weak, leading to interesting tensions within the system and influences on how voters relate to, and engage in politics. This book not only describes these patterns but also provides the reader with thorough explanations and interpretations from a team of expert contributors. This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of Finnish politics, Nordic/Scandinavian politics and studies, political behaviour, electoral studies, public opinion and more broadly to comparative politics and democracy"--Provided by publisher.VotingFinlandElectionsFinlandPolitical partiesFinlandPolitical candidatesFinlandFinlandPolitics and government21st centuryVotingElectionsPolitical partiesPolitical candidates324.94897von Schoultz Åsa1735559Strandberg Kim1735560MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910842077703321Political Behaviour in Contemporary Finland4154802UNINA
