The dataset comprises a selection of party positions taken from two existing datasets: (1) The EU Profiler/euandi Trend File The EU Profiler/euandi Trend File contains party positions for three rounds of European Parliament elections (2009, 2014, and 2019). Party positions were determined in an iterative process of party self-placement and expert judgement. For more information: https://cadmus.eui.eu/handle/1814/65944 (2) The Chapel Hill Expert Survey The Chapel Hill Expert Survey contains party positions for the national elections most closely corresponding the European Parliament elections of 2009, 2014, 2019. Party positions were determined by expert judgement. For more information: https://www.chesdata.eu/ Three additional party positions, related to DI-specific questions, are included in the dataset. These positions were determined by experts involved in the 2019 edition of euandi after the elections took place. The inclusion of party positions in the “InDivEU – party preferences” is limited to the following issues: - General questions about the EU - Questions about EU policy - Questions about differentiated integration - Questions about party ideology 1 This includes all 27 member states of the European Union in 2020, plus the United Kingdom.

  • The Democratic Party in 1862
    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY AND RELIGIOUS STUDIES PROGRAM “With No Time To Wrangle and Quarrel Amongst Themselves” The Pennsylvania Democracy During the Civil War KRISTEN CAMPBELL Spring 2011 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in History with honors in History Reviewed and approved* by the following: Dr. William Blair Liberal Arts Professor, U.S. History Director, George and Ann Richards Civil War Era Center Thesis Supervisor Dr. Catherine Wanner Professor of History, Anthropology and Religious Studies Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College ABSTRACT This thesis examines the Democratic Party in Pennsylvania during the Civil War as a test case for assessing the group’s ideals and influence on politics. Scholarship on the Democratic Party during war years typically has focused on the people known as the Copperheads, or Peace Democrats. Prior studies have considered this wing of the party to be a loyal opposition by people with justifiable constitutional concerns, whose influence was often exaggerated by Republicans for political reasons. More recent work on the anti-war movement argues that the Peace Democrats were influential and that the anti-war movement was driven by opposition to local issues. This thesis expands on these ideas. Unlike earlier studies, it finds that the Democracy was more than a monolithic party that opposed the war, but a party deeply polarized by different opinions on war and peace from 1860 through 1864. The Pennsylvania Democracy was composed of both War and Peace Democrats, each inspired by larger political ideology on civil liberties, the extent of federal power, and local issues.

  • Democratic Rally, Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, October 11, 1966
    , . • f • ~ NOTES VICE PRES I DENT HUBERT HUMPHREY DEMOCRATIC RALLY PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA OCTOBER 11, 1966 A di sti ngui shed citizen of this state once observed about politics: '1'he people are sensible and wi IIi ng; they ask only that their leaders be the same. To succeed with them, talk sense to them.,, We" Democrats are following Ben Franklin's advice. We followed it in 1964. And we are followin g !! in 1966. -- - - ~Talking sense is what this Democratic campaign in Pen~ania is all abol,!t. And the response to this campaign W. ~ · will take Milton Shapp and Leonard Staisey to Harrisburg. S'"(jf~ I also predict that the people will return Bill Moorhead and Elmer Holland to the United States Congress, and wi II send ~ df{.., H.~ John Woh ~rth and Stephen ArnoldA to join them .• -._!> tV , .• ' ·,t. -2- Now, before we go further, I would like to have just a few moments of silent meditation for the opposition party. Our opposition party has many troubles. Time does not permit me to list them all. One of its troubles is that it doesn't understand us. The Democratic Party is just too modern, too lively, and too active for our opposition to understand. For the old Republican Party, our Democratic Party is a mysterious contraption that usually seems to them to be moving in a thousand directions at once. Imagine how confusing that must be for a party that knows only three positions: standing still, spinning counter­ clockwise, and moving backward. In this instance, it is what they don't know that hurts them.

This is an updated and revised list of government parties and their ideological position that were first provided by WKB (2011). Therefore, countries that did not appear in WKB (2011) have no list of government parties in this update. Those countries include Bangladesh, Botswana, Czechoslovakia, Guyana, Jamaica, Namibia, Pakistan, South Africa, and Sri Lanka. For some countries in which new parties are frequently formed and/or political parties are frequently dissolved, we noted the year (and month) in which a political party was established.
