Wahlkreisarbeit zahlt sich doppelt aus — Zur Wirkung des Amtsinhaberstatus einer Partei auf ihren Zweitstimmenanteil bei den Bundestagswahlen 1949 bis 1998

Auszug

Seit den frühen 90er Jahren haben mehr als 30 Länder Wahlsysteme eingeführt, die die Mehrheitswahl in Einerwahlkreisen mit Elementen der Verhältniswahl verbinden. Es vermag daher nicht zu überraschen, dass die wissenschaftliche Zurückhaltung, mit der solchen kombinierten Wahlsystemen anfangs vor dem Hintergrund der idealtypischen Unterscheidung zwischen Verhältnis- und Mehrheitswahlrecht begegnet wurde, inzwischen einem erheblichen Forschungsinteresse gewichen ist (Massicotte und Blais 1999; Shugart und Wattenberg 2001; Ferrara et al. 2005). Nicht nur die Entstehung solcher Wahlsysteme (Bawn 1993; Shugart 2001), sondern auch deren Bedeutung für strategisches Wählen und den Eintritt neuer Parteien in den politischen Wettbewerb wurden dabei ausgiebig untersucht (Bawn 1999; Gschwend et al. 2003; Moser und Scheiner 2005). Die Literatur hat inzwischen auch den Einfluss kombinierter Wahlsysteme auf das Verhalten des Gesetzgebers (Lancaster und Patterson 1990; Stratmann und Baur 2002; Bawn und Thies 2003) und die Entwicklung von Parteiensystemen (Shugart und Wattenberg 2001; Ferrara et al. 2005) analysiert.
