New study out in Scandinavian Political Studies

Project members Anne Rasmussen, Jeroen Romeijn and Dimiter Toshkov recently published a paper in Scandinavian Political Studies! The study focuses on 4 policy issues in Sweden and studies whether both the political agenda and policy react to both media advocacy and public opinion. It finds that although politicians seem to pay more attention to popular policy proposals, this does not necessarily translate into actual policy change. You can read more about the sub-project this study is a part of here.

Featured study

This new paper by Anne Rasmussen, Stefanie Reher and Dimiter Toshkov in the European Journal of Political Research studies the links between public opinion and policy on 20 policy issues across 31 European countries. It shows substantial levels of congruence between public opinion and policy-making, but finds less evidence for a relationship between (electoral) institutions and the link between public opinion and policy.

Latest paper from the #GovLis project on interest groups & policy representation.

In @EJPR we present a more sceptical view of the ability of groups to suppress the opinion–policy linkage than the one frequently presented w @AnneBind @HeikeKluever 1/10
