?:abstract
  • In this paper we revisite the debate on the usefulness of the concept of party identification in cross-national research. In our earlier work we showed that, at least in the Netherlands, party identification was empirically hardly discernible from the vote, whereas party identification was less stable than vote choice (Thomassen 1976). As several authors argued that these findings might be due to the nature of the times in The Netherlands, we replicate these analyses with data spanning a longer period of time. The analyses mainly confirm our original findings. Next we show that explaining vote choice on the basis of the concept of party identification appears also problematic in several other parliamentary as well as presidential systems. Therefore, we discuss a possible alternative and apply it to the 1996 Israel prime ministerial election. Findings indicate that partisanship strongly influenced vote choice. This could best be demonstrated if partisanship is conceptualized in terms of party evaluations instead of party identification. (xsd:string)
