1. VÄLJARSTÖD OCH HALOEFFEKTEN I PERSPEKTIV: GRUPPTRYCK OCH GEOPOLITIK En kvantitativ studie av svenska kommuner
Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionenSammanfattning : This paper aims to study the applicable nature of the haloeffect-hypothesis, built from theories regarding ethnic competition and the group threat theory in modern day Sweden, as an answer to the growing support for political parties in western Europe that can by definition be considered right-wing and are preaching anti-immigration sentiments.
