The question of who wins or loses in the policy process lies at the heart of recent research into both interest groups and public policy.

However, much of the literature on political protest overlooks the fact that dissatisfaction originates within the political system, and therefore may depend on it. In this article, we argue that citizens who are dissatisfied with the political system are more likely to join protest act... |

Their proposal distinguishes the models according to newspaper circulation, political parallelism, levels of professionalisation and role of the state in the media system. This article extends their analy... |

This article assesses whether the recent development of more inclusive mechanisms to select both party chairmen/women and chief executive candidates makes leadership races (LRs) more divisive, that is, characterized by negative campaigns, close final results, and intraparty conflicts in the contest's aftermath. The findings are based on a comparati... |
