Current research projects

The Europeanisation of Politics

This project analyses the integration of European electorates and party systems, and the
formation of a supra-national cleavage constellation in the European Union. It is an empirical
research on the “Europeanisation” of electorates and party systems convergence: (1) the
ideological integration among parties of the same family in Europe, (2) the homogeneity of
voting behaviour and common changes (uniform swings), (3) the location of sources for
electoral behaviour (local, national or EU level), (4) the degree of distinctiveness of the EU
party system with respect to national party systems and their alignments. The research covers
30 countries since the first direct election to the EP in 1979. The project is based on three
types of data: (1) aggregate data, (2) survey data and (3) party manifestos.

CLEA: Constituency-Level Electoral Archive

The central aim of the CLEA project is to produce a repository of detailed results – including
votes received by each candidate/party, total votes cast, number of eligible voters, and seat
figures – at a constituency level for the lower house legislative elections that have been
conducted around the world. The goal is to preserve and consolidate these data in one
comprehensive and reliable reference resource that is ready for analysis and publicly available
at no cost. This public good is expected to be of use to a range of audiences for research,
education, policy-making and evaluation. The project is carried out in collaboration with Ken
Kollman and Allen Hicken (University of Michigan), and David Backer (William & Mary).

PartyRep: Participation and Representation

Project by the Inter University Attraction Pole (Universities of Brussels, Antwerp, Leuven
and Leiden) consists of a comparative national and regional MP survey in Europe. Four
themes are studied. First, the definition of constituencies and how MPs define them. Second,
how interests of (un)organised groups are defined in the representation process. Third, multi-
level environment, how members of regional and national parliaments interact and compete.
Fourth how electoral rules affect the role orientations that MPs choose from.

8
The Nationalisation of Central and East European Countries
An ECPR workshop organised in 2008 in Rennes with Ingrid van Biezen will analyse
processes of nationalisation since 1989 in Central and East European countries (including
Russia, Bulgaria and Romania) after the break-down of communism. Papers will include
country case studies with two introductory chapters: one analysing common trends in Central
and Eastern Europe and the other comparing these trends with Western Europe. The papers
will lead to an edited volume to be submitted to Cambridge University Press.

European Regions: 1870–2005

In collaboration with the MZES, University of Mannheim, a comparative reference handbook
and CD-ROM in the series “The Societies of Europe”: (1) presentation through text, tables,
synopses of the development of political-administrative regional structures in Western,
Central, and Eastern Europe; (2) a complete set of digitalised and machine-readable maps
since 1870 for all European countries documenting border changes and changes in the internal
organisation of administrative/political territorial units. The map files can be used by GIS
systems for thematic mapping and analysis.

Democratisation and the Emergence of a Responsive Party System in Latin America

Analysis of the emergence of responsive party systems in 12 countries. The project combines
comparative historical analysis and quantitative statistical methods to empirically analyse
processes of democratisation in Latin America. The hypothesis is that the way conflicts were
mobilised early on affects the long-term balance between clientelistic and programmatic
mobilisation strategies employed by parties.

A Historical and Computerised Electoral Atlas of Europe

The project aims to produce an electoral atlas of elections for 30 countries in Europe. Maps
include turnout and voting support for the main parties across Europe from all party families.
The maps are historical including elections that took place in the 19th century. Territorial
units are constituencies. The goal is to produce a printed atlas accompanied by CD-ROM or
webpage based on GIS cartography in order to produce dynamic configurations of territorial
patters of voting support over time to assess the impact of industrialisation, urbanisation,
migrations and boundary changes.
