چکیده
Explaining durable success of new parties through complex causation Pre-master thesis Political Science Abstract Despite the difficulty of building support from the ground up, some new political parties have managed to achieve durable success. The literature provides various explanations for differences in success including institutions, the attitude of the electorate and interactions between parties. No previous research has measured the durability of success and the interaction between explanatory factors has only been investigated for specific types of parties. A research is proposed to investigate the causes of durable success in post-World War II Western European parliamentary democracies, including all types of new parties and allowing interactions between explanatory factors to be found. The research design is based on fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fs/QCA), a method proposed by Ragin which allows complex patterns of causation to be discovered from specially coded data. The analysis requires election results, content analysis of political manifestos and macro-economical indicators, each of which are readily available for the time period covered by the investigation. This research can be conducted in approximately five to six weeks.
