  • 2019 European Elections the Weight of the Electorates Compared to the Electoral Weight of the Parliamentary Groups
    2019 European Elections The weight of the electorates compared to the electoral weight of the parliamentary groups Guillemette Lano Raphaël Grelon With the assistance of Victor Delage and Dominique Reynié July 2019 2019 European Elections. The weight of the electorates | Fondation pour l’innovation politique I. DISTINGUISHING BETWEEN THE WEIGHT OF ELECTORATES AND THE ELECTORAL WEIGHT OF PARLIAMENTARY GROUPS The Fondation pour l’innovation politique wished to reflect on the European elections in May 2019 by assessing the weight of electorates across the European constituency independently of the electoral weight represented by the parliamentary groups comprised post-election. For example, we have reconstructed a right-wing Eurosceptic electorate by aggregating the votes in favour of right-wing national lists whose discourses are hostile to the European Union. In this case, for instance, this methodology has led us to assign those who voted for Fidesz not to the European People’s Party (EPP) group but rather to an electorate which we describe as the “populist right and extreme right” in which we also include those who voted for the Italian Lega, the French National Rally, the Austrian FPÖ and the Sweden Democrats. Likewise, Slovak SMER voters were detached from the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats (S&D) Group and instead categorised as part of an electorate which we describe as the “populist left and extreme left”. A. The data collected The electoral results were collected list by list, country by country 1, from the websites of the national parliaments and governments of each of the States of the Union. We then aggregated these data at the European level, thus obtaining: – the number of individuals registered on the electoral lists on the date of the elections, or the registered voters; – the number of votes, or the voters; – the number of valid votes in favour of each of the lists, or the votes cast; – the number of invalid votes, or the blank or invalid votes.

  • Green Parties and Elections to the European Parliament, 1979–2019 Green Par Elections
    Chapter 1 Green Parties and Elections, 1979–2019 Green parties and elections to the European Parliament, 1979–2019 Wolfgang Rüdig Introduction The history of green parties in Europe is closely intertwined with the history of elections to the European Parliament. When the first direct elections to the European Parliament took place in June 1979, the development of green parties in Europe was still in its infancy. Only in Belgium and the UK had green parties been formed that took part in these elections; but ecological lists, which were the pre- decessors of green parties, competed in other countries. Despite not winning representation, the German Greens were particularly influ- enced by the 1979 European elections. Five years later, most partic- ipating countries had seen the formation of national green parties, and the first Green MEPs from Belgium and Germany were elected. Green parties have been represented continuously in the European Parliament since 1984. Subsequent years saw Greens from many other countries joining their Belgian and German colleagues in the Euro- pean Parliament. European elections continued to be important for party formation in new EU member countries. In the 1980s it was the South European countries (Greece, Portugal and Spain), following 4 GREENS FOR A BETTER EUROPE their successful transition to democracies, that became members. Green parties did not have a strong role in their national party systems, and European elections became an important focus for party develop- ment. In the 1990s it was the turn of Austria, Finland and Sweden to join; green parties were already well established in all three nations and provided ongoing support for Greens in the European Parliament.

  • Professionalization of Green Parties?
    Professionalization of Green parties? Analyzing and explaining changes in the external political approach of the Dutch political party GroenLinks Lotte Melenhorst (0712019) Supervisor: Dr. A. S. Zaslove 5 September 2012 Abstract There is a relatively small body of research regarding the ideological and organizational changes of Green parties. What has been lacking so far is an analysis of the way Green parties present them- selves to the outside world, which is especially interesting because it can be expected to strongly influence the image of these parties. The project shows that the Dutch Green party ‘GroenLinks’ has become more professional regarding their ‘external political approach’ – regarding ideological, or- ganizational as well as strategic presentation – during their 20 years of existence. This research pro- ject challenges the core idea of the so-called ‘threshold-approach’, that major organizational changes appear when a party is getting into government. What turns out to be at least as interesting is the ‘anticipatory’ adaptations parties go through once they have formulated government participation as an important party goal. Until now, scholars have felt that Green parties are transforming, but they have not been able to point at the core of the changes that have taken place. Organizational and ideological changes have been investigated separately, whereas in the case of Green parties organi- zation and ideology are closely interrelated. In this thesis it is argued that the external political ap- proach of GroenLinks, which used to be a typical New Left Green party but that lacks governmental experience, has become more professional, due to initiatives of various within-party actors who of- ten responded to developments outside the party.

  • Panel 4 the ENVIRONMENT & SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN
    The ecological movement in Greece: organizational and electoral expression in Greece 1974-2009 Bouranta Vasiliki Phd Candidate, Faculty of Law, Economics and Politics, Department of Political Sciences Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Abstract In the European elections of June 2009 and for the first time in the electoral history of Greece the Ecologist Greens managed to elect one of their candidates as a representative in the European Parliament. In the early national elections of October that followed, the party gathered 2,53% of the votes cast in the territory, their largest share in their short history. The Party failed naturally to participate in the distribution of seats of the Greek Parliament; however this percentage of valid votes is for many an indication of the rise of a new eco-movement to the Greek political space. In Western Europe, and especially in developed industrialised countries such as Germany, France, Belgium, Great Britain etc., 'green' parties acquired stable electoral stream and managed in several cases to gain “access to power” and be able to shape policies regarding the environment and other wider social and economic problems of their country. However, this was not the case of Greece where the ecological movement did not manage to develop to the point to become an equal “player” to the political deliberation but was always present in the background. More specific, my research question is why was not the greek ecological movement able to establish a mass party like the Socialists and therefore “build” a steady electoral power and influence in the political life of Greece. I aspire to answer to that question based on theories of voting behaviour of the electorate, focusing on “issue voting” theory.

  • Challenger Party List
    Appendix List of Challenger Parties Operationalization of Challenger Parties A party is considered a challenger party if in any given year it has not been a member of a central government after 1930. A party is considered a dominant party if in any given year it has been part of a central government after 1930. Only parties with ministers in cabinet are considered to be members of a central government. A party ceases to be a challenger party once it enters central government (in the election immediately preceding entry into office, it is classified as a challenger party). Participation in a national war/crisis cabinets and national unity governments (e.g., Communists in France’s provisional government) does not in itself qualify a party as a dominant party. A dominant party will continue to be considered a dominant party after merging with a challenger party, but a party will be considered a challenger party if it splits from a dominant party. Using this definition, the following parties were challenger parties in Western Europe in the period under investigation (1950–2017). The parties that became dominant parties during the period are indicated with an asterisk.

  • Motivation Letter
    Motivation letter Dear Member Organizations, I would like to introduce myself and my motivations in order to apply my candidacy as mem- ber of the committee of EGP. My name is Maria Peteinaki and I am member of the Greek ecologist Greens, since 2009, and since then, I am active in the young greens, and in FYEG. During 2014 I served as a member of the Council, as a delegate to EGP, as a member of the Executive committee of the Ecologist Greens and finally as a co-spokesperson for the Greek party for 5 months. I am an architect, I run my own office (www.oddworks.gr) and co-founder of Alternative Tours of Athens that aim at promoting an alternative view of the city through its modern life, young creators and social movements. I would like to apply as a candidate for member of the EGP council. The European Greens have always inspired me to keep myself active in politics, they have empowered me as a woman, and an activist. I consider myself more as an activist than a politician. In that sense, I try to be as close as possible to the grassroots movements in Greece. In that direction being involved with the Embros occupied theater, a space of intense discussion, political social and cultural action, kept me connected and aware. The Greens in Greece are at an important turning point. Before the elections the party was in a strangely disruptive situation, due to its internal problems but also the refusal of many to continue through the party’s majority decision to go to elections through SYRIZA.
