About
The workshop examines parties’ use of new information communications technologies (ICTs) during in election campaigns. In particular, it sets out to understand:
-
How far new technologies might impact on party competition – are minor parties the main beneficiaries? Can new ICTs deliver votes for parties?
-
Whether ICTs are heralding a new, more interactive, personalised and decentralised campaign era.
-
How far parties can reach new audiences via the new media.
-
what role the national political campaign environment (electoral law, electoral systems, campaign finance etc.) plays in shaping the way parties adopt new ICTs.
Papers include case studies of the US, UK, Chile, Netherlands, Italy, Belgium, France and Spain.
