Based on a case study of Switzerland, it analyses how cleavages divide voters into voting blocs and how this influences Swiss voting behaviour and the Swiss party system. The first part examines the development of salient cleavages such as religion, social class, rural-urban, and language between 1971 and 2011. Behavioural changes among voters and changes in the size of social groups are explored as explanatory factors for the decline of cleavage voting. The second part proposes a contextual perspective analysis of the current impact of cleavages using both individual and contextual factors. These factors are also combined to examine interaction effects between the individual and the context. Finally, the third part analyses whether the impact of cleavages has harmonised across different contexts (Swiss cantons) over time. 410 0$aContributions to Political Science,$x2198-7289 606 $aElections 606 $aPolitical sociology 606 $aWelfare economics 606 $aDemocracy 606 $aElectoral Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911070 606 $aPolitical Sociology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22170 606 $aSocial Choice/Welfare Economics/Public Choice/Political Economy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W31020 606 $aDemocracy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911050 615 0$aElections. 615 0$aPolitical sociology. 615 0$aWelfare economics. 615 0$aDemocracy. 615 14$aElectoral Politics. 615 24$aPolitical Sociology. 615 24$aSocial Choice/Welfare Economics/Public Choice/Political Economy. 615 24$aDemocracy. 676 $a324.9494073 700 $aGoldberg$b Andreas C$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0865639 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155304303321 996 $aThe Impact of Cleavages on Swiss Voting Behaviour$91931915 997 $aUNINA
