Why some political parties join popular protests, whereas others abstain or even oppose? Using paired case-study comparison between party models of interactions with protest movements in the Russian regions, we examine political parties' strategies towards «For Fair Elections» movement in 2011–2012 and explain these choices through two jointly operating mechanisms: level of party institutionalization and cooptation. We show that despite the symbiosis of the state and political parties and overall parties' loyalty to the regime in Russia, on an organizational level they differ in strategy and degree of involvement in the social movement. We argue that the mechanism of party institutionalization explains the switch between involvement and abstention, while cooptation does a better job of explaining the «support/ counteract» choice. Ключевые слова: политические партии; социальные движения; субнациональная политика; политическая мобилизация

We offer the first systematic cross-national analysis of this phenomenon from 1791 to 2019. We show that the absence of leadership is real but older and more modest than claimed: the share ...

We argue that a classification-based approach to measuring cultural differences across countries or subnational regions is a promising complement, and sometimes an alternative, to the widely used dimensional method in cross-cultural research. The latter summarises cultural variation using continuous dimensions, for example, Hofstede’s famous individualism-collectivism dimension. However, this approach relies on strong parametric assumptions, which are ...

Non-probability web surveys offer several advantages over face-to-face (F2F) interviews—they are cheaper, faster, more accessible, and reduce interviewer effects and desirability bias. As such, they are increasingly popular in both academic and commercial research. However, they often yield demographically biased samples, raising concerns about the accuracy of the resulting public opinion estimates. Most studies on ...
