In Negative Voting in Comparative Perspective, Diego Garzia and Frederico Ferreira da Silva uncover a common theme—comparative party and candidate evaluations drive negative voting. The authors’ findings have important implications for election outcomes, for mass-elite linkages, and for the climate of political hostility and distrust evident in many contemporary Western publics. ---James Adams, University of California at Davis Negative Voting in Comparative Perspective is an insightful conceptualization and exploration of a vital aspect of democracy. By delving into the intricacies of negative voting, this book equips readers with a deeper understanding of the mechanisms that underpin electoral choices and the accountability of elected officials. This book is a valuable addition to the literature, providing a nuanced and enlightening perspective on the democratic process. ---Carolina Plescia, University of Vienna Why do some people conceive their vote choices as mostly against, rather than for a given party/candidate? Who are these negative voters? What macro-level conditions favor the development of negative voting? This volume provides answers to these questions through the first comparative assessment of negative voting in contemporary democracies. It presents a composite theoretical framework for the analysis of negative voting and tests it extensively on originally collected survey data from Canada, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and the United States. Examining negative voting as a possible behavioral consequence of affective polarization and negative partisanship, this study sheds light on the electoral implications of increasingly antagonistic attitudes among the electorate.
