?:abstract
  • Based on recent survey data from 20 countries, this article examines the ‘contagion’ thesis: that lack of support among the electorate at one level of the political system may spread to other levels. The levels examined are political parties and the party system. The results demonstrate that the degree to which people are attached to a party is related to how they view the need for parties in their country. In countries with widely different democratic systems, people who identify strongly with a party tend to be much more supportive of the idea that parties are necessary to the functioning of the political system than people without strong party attachments. Hence, party identification, a concept originating with the ‘Michigan Four’, is not only a very useful tool in analyzing voting behavior. It can also be applied to studying support for party-based democratic political systems. (xsd:string)
