Using Cultural Theory to Specify the Policy Actors, Belief Systems, and Sources of Coalition, Conflict, Stability, and Change in Policy Advocacy Coalitions and Environmental Resource Policies

Policy Studies Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We use grid‐group cultural theory (CT) to specify underspecified aspects of the Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF). Our theoretical synthesis of CT and the ACF provides, first, an exhaustive typology of policy actors and their cultural cognitive biases that entail, guide, and constrain policy core beliefs about problem definitions and ...

Beyond Groups? Consociational Culture and the Representation of Cross‐Segmental Interests

Swiss Political Science Review, EarlyView.
Abstract In deeply divided societies, consociational power‐sharing ensures representation for ethnonational groups but raises questions about cross‐segmental interests. This paper explores “consociational culture,” arguing that consociational systems create a form of political culture which incentivises the use of group‐based categories and identities ...

Integration as a Precondition for Enfranchisement? Swiss Public Opinion on Noncitizen Voting Rights

Swiss Political Science Review, EarlyView.
Abstract In recent decades, as growing numbers of noncitizen residents remain excluded from the electorate, the question of who should be included in the electorate has gained prominence in both political and academic debates. Drawing on theories of integration and immigrant attitudes, I explore whether Swiss voters would consider integration criteria ...

Threatened by the “Other”? Swiss Integration Policies and Citizens' Perceptions of Migrants Through the Lens of Reflective Solidarity

Swiss Political Science Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Switzerland's federal structure offers a unique context to examine how cantonal integration policies shape citizens' perceptions of migrants. While research has linked integration policies and citizens' attitudes, it often neglects subnational variation.
