This journal publishes research on Swiss political science, with a strong focus on electoral behavior, political participation, and representation. Recent articles examine factors influencing voting decisions, such as perceptions of poverty and gender stereotypes, and analyze the reasons for political abstention among different age groups. The research also explores the role of education, social capital, and discriminatory experiences in shaping political engagement and discusses the congruence between politicians' and citizens' views on democracy and policy preferences.
