  3. 8. Accommodation och affektiv polarisering på elitnivå - En teoriprövande och teoriutvecklande studie av vänsterorienterade mainstreampartiers relation till invandringskritiska nischpartier

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Författare :Birger Robach; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Accommodation; Affective Polarization; Affektiv polarisering; Affektiv polarisering på elitnivå; Policy convergence; Partikonkurrens; Party behaviour; Socialdemokraterna; Sverigedemokraterna; Law and Political Science;

    Sammanfattning : Is it possible for a left-wing mainstream party to use the strategy Accommodation against an anti immigrant niche party, at the same time as its leaders experiences Affective Polarizing against the same party? A coexistence might seem incompatible, since Accommodation describes how a party decreases the policy differences to another party, while Affective Polarization on elite level captures the negative emotional attitude and distance to another party. Drawing on Meguids theory of Accommodation, and previous research on Affective Polarization on elite level, I examine the possibility of coexistence of the two phenomena in a qualitative and theory-developing case study of the Swedish Social Democratic party’s (Socialdemokraterna) relation to the Sweden Democrats (Sverigedemokraterna) 2010-2022.

    Sammanfattning : Elections are a core democratic process in the world to ensure a peaceful transition of power between governing actors, yet it is too often the case that violence is employed to disturb the democratic process. Incumbents’ use of violence in order to maintain power and control over the procedure has become common as political violence and autocratisation has seen an upsurge in recent years. LÄS MER
