An upper-level elective that treats elections and parties as objects of social-scientific analysis rather than current-events commentary: why parties form and cluster into the systems they do, and why individual voters end up choosing what they choose. You'll work through Mair alongside weekly readings on vote-choice theories — economic, ideological, issue-based, identity-driven — submitting short reports each week, a longer paper, and the standard midterm/final. It sits at the empirical end of comparative politics, leaning on the conceptual vocabulary from earlier POLS courses and pairing naturally with work on democratic theory, polarization, and political behavior.
