?:abstract
  • Civic education belongs to the basic catalogue of topics in general adult education and is funded by public means with the aim of strengthening democratic values and behaviours among the population. Adult education centres provide courses for civic education in their programme “politics – society – environment” nationwide and comprehensively. In this article we use data collected in the statistics of adult education centres and official election data to study the relationship between realised activities of civic education and voter participation (general and party-specific), as an indicator for democratic behavior, on the level of municipalities. We apply a spatial-autoregressive model, which controls the spatial distribution of adult education centres as well as the spatial structures of municipalities and unobserved heterogeneity. We find that cumulated civic educational activities of adult education centres increase voter turnout in general and moreover, have party-specific effects. In addition, we show that the influence of civic-education activities at adult education centres goes beyond borders of municipalities, which indicates that civic education does not only affect participants, but via diffusion processes also individuals in their environment.
