The recent string of minority governments has reminded Canadians that voting behaviour has serious consequences - on the composition of government as well as on the direction of public policy. Understanding the underlying meaning of election results is a key issue for policy makers and for students and scholars of politics. But can voting behaviour be explained, given that each vote represents the influence of countless impressions, decisions, and attachments?
Voting Behaviour in Canada reveals the challenges of understanding election results as leading young scholars of political behaviour piece together a comprehensive portrait of the modern Canadian voter. Contributors explore voting considerations that fall into one of three distinct types: long-standing attachments (gender, immigration, religion, and partisanship), short-term influences (the role of political leaders and economic issues and conditions), and proximate factors (campaign issues and poll results). Many theories have been developed to illuminate the influence of certain variables on voting decisions - these tightly focused essays build upon their insights to offer a well-rounded explanation of election results in Canada.
Theoretically grounded and methodologically advanced, Voting Behaviour in Canada sheds new light on the choices we make as citizens and provides important insights into recent political developments in Canada. It will be of interest to anyone concerned with Canadian or comparative political behaviour.
