party-movement interactions
forms of interaction between the electoral and the protest arena
The share of party-sponsored protests from all organized protests in a country. From Borbáth & Hutter 2020.
Studying the different forms of interaction between the electoral and the protest arena is a topic I love to explore from a variety of different angles. The research lies at the intersection of the literature on party competition and social movement studies. It encompasses both a large n statistical overview and selected case studies designed to illustrate the different mechanisms of how parties and protest movements interact.
I do most of this work with Swen Hutter, we are currently working on a book manuscript on these questions.
