Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal examines electoral processes, voter behavior, and political dynamics within Southern European countries. Recent articles focus on the influence of candidate attributes on voter choices, the contestation of government responses to crises, and the relevance of second-order election models in national and European elections. The scope also includes analyses of political trust, party defection patterns, and the impact of domestic versus EU-level issues on electoral outcomes.
