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, Simon Otjes in the Journal of Politics studies the magnitude and potential drivers of misperceptions by comparing actual public opinion on policy with estimations of public opinion by representatives at all government levels in Denmark and the Netherlands. Our results show misperceptions are widespread and associated with a tendency for representatives to project their own opinion onto the public. It is one of the largest studies on perceptions of public opinion to date, based on approximately 10,000 estimations by politicians.
