Vor dem Hintergrund der zunehmenden Beliebtheit der Briefwahl untersucht diese Arbeit mögliche negative Auswirkungen dieser Entwicklung auf die Zusammensetzung der Wählerschaft. Da die Briefwahl komplexer ist als die Urnenwahl, bestehen bei der Briefwahl mehr Fehlerquellen, die zum Ausschluss des Wahlbriefes führen können. Dabei trifft die höhere Fehleranfälligkeit der Briefwahl die Wählerschaft jedoch nicht gleichermaßen, sondern führt wahrscheinlicher zum Ausschluss von Wahlbriefen in sozial benachteiligten Wählerschichten und trägt somit zu einer Verschärfung der bestehenden sozialen Selektivität der Wahlteilnahme bei. Eine empirische Analyse von kleinräumigen Daten aus der Stadt Bremen bekräftigt diese Erwartung.

Political science research into the determinants and consequences of who was taught what, when, and how in public schools is rare. One challenge encountered by researchers is that structured and detailed (historical) comparative data about curricula is limited, also in Switzerland. We contribute to closing this gap by introducing HESSS, a novel dataset on the provision of home economics education (“Hauswirtschaftsunterricht”) in Switzerland in ten German‐speaking cantons for vocational‐ and university‐track secondary schools since 1980 and 1991, respectively. Our dataset can help scholars explore variation in home economics education over time and across cantons, and facilitate research on the Swiss educational system. In this research note, we outline the main features of the data and illustrate how they can be used in two applications: (i) tracking the switch from gender‐segregated to co‐educated home economics classes across cantons; and (ii) describing the impact of budget cuts on home economics in the canton of Zurich.

Belgium illustrates that using consociational institutions in divided societies may ensure a peaceful political environment, but it fails in reducing its centrifugal tendencies. As communitarian issues threaten to paralyse the political debate, preserving the efficiency of the state will require adding centripetal incentives to the consociational framework. However, the solution usually proposed for this purpose –the creation of a federal constituency– would be insufficient and would raise legitimacy problems analogous to those occurred in Bosnia, the Swiss Canton of Berne or Cyprus. Instead, this paper advocates the adoption of a new electoral system: the Multiple Proportional Vote (MPV). MPV can maintain the consociational goal of including the different communities in the parliament, as well as to strengthen the centripetal trends towards moderation. Indeed, electors of every group are allowed to cast their preferences for candidates of the other communities. As such, MPV suggests that consociationalism and its main theoretical alternative, centripetalism, are far from mutually exclusive.

Legislative bodies generally keep records of their activities. While the digitization wave spurred the availability of archival documents, their processing remains a challenge. The Swiss parliamentary records are no exception.In this paper we present a supervised pipeline for extracting and structuring of content of archival records. Our pipeline consists of five steps, starting with an assessment of which elements need extraction and how they relate to each other. Step two involves general pre‐processing to prepare the PDF documents and is followed by an element classification step. Step four involves post‐processing and the final step is a validation of the extracted information. With our supervised approach, we are able to process over 200,000 pages of Swiss parliamentary records (spanning the years 1891–1995), a feat that would exceed the budget of most projects using manual curation. We discuss validation of individual steps and offer guidance to researchers engaged in similar data processing efforts.
立法机构通常会保留其活动记录。虽然数字化浪潮推动了档案文件的可用性，但其处理仍是一项挑战。瑞士议会记录也不例外。在本文中，我们介绍了一个用于提取和构建档案记录内容的监督管道。我们的流程包括五个步骤，首先是评估哪些元素需要提取以及它们之间的关系。第二步是对 PDF 文档进行一般预处理，然后进行元素分类。第四步是后处理，最后一步是验证提取的信息。利用我们的监督方法，我们能够处理超过 20 万页的瑞士议会记录（时间跨度为 1891-1995 年），这一壮举超出了大多数使用人工整理的项目的预算。我们讨论了各个步骤的验证，并为从事类似数据处理工作的研究人员提供了指导。

Demand‐side research on the Radical right‐wing populist parties (RRPPs) has highlighted anti‐immigration attitudes, political dissatisfaction and their interaction as drivers of sympathy for them. Supply‐side research studies the isolation that RRPPs often face in their respective parliaments. Linking these perspectives, we theorize and test whether cross‐country differences in parliamentary isolation of an RRPP can predict differences in attitudinal associations. Conducting OLS regression analyses on 15 country samples, we find that that, beyond direct association with sympathy for RRPPs, the moderating term of anti‐immigration attitudes and political dissatisfaction varies considerably across our samples. This variation is consistent with the parliamentary status of the RRPP in each country at the time of data collection. In predicting sympathy for RRPPs, these factors reinforce each other when the RRPPs is isolated in parliament; attenuate each other when the RRPP is in government; and are independent from one another when the RRPP has a history of government.
