?:abstract
  • "The linkages between religion and electoral behaviour are undoubtedly complex in most European countries and the German case is no exception. We can use three different approaches and themes in analysing the questions that inevitably arise. Each of these may be considered to be relevant to the key question of secularisation, and each is relevant to the linkage between religion and electoral behaviour. First, it can be hypothesised that, if society itself is becoming more secularised, then elections and the behaviour of electors will also be more secularised. The example developed below, of the German Democratic Republic, bears this out to some degree. Second, independent of whether society itself is becoming more secularised, if the political agenda is more secular than before, then it is likely that voting decisions will be taken less on the basis of denomination or religion, and more on other grounds. Third, the electorate itself in its predispositions may be more secular. Independent of whether voters attend church regularly, independent even of the political agenda, past party loyality or links between parties and the churches, voters may be inclined increasingly to make their voting decision on other than religious grounds: 'rational' voting, or class- or regional-based voting decisions or the images of party leaders may well be acquiring more significance for the structure of voting patterns. It is important to note of course that any or all of these three factors may be overlapping and reinforcing one another."
