CSES Module 5 Full Release
CSES Module 5 (2016-2021) focuses on the politics of populism. It explores the relationship between the rise of populist parties and the distribution of populist attitudes cross-nationally. The main objective of the module is to examine citizens’ perceptions of political elites, ‘out-groups’ and national identity, and the implications for electoral democracy. The module enables researchers to account for variation in the contestation of political elites and ‘populist’ attitudes across democracies and to examine how such perceptions shape citizens electoral behavior.The Comparative Study of Electoral Systems (CSES) is a collaborative program of research among election study teams from around the world. Participating countries include a common module of survey questions in their post-election studies. The resulting data are deposited along with voting, demographic, district and macro variables. The studies are then merged into a single, free, public dataset for use in comparative study and cross-level analysis. The CSES project focuses on respondents´ behavior and attitudes during the time of a national election, with a particular emphasis on voting and turnout. Each CSES Module consists of a nationally-representative post-election survey and additional variables about the context of the overall country and electoral system within which the respondents find themselves. Every five years a new CSES Module is designed with a different substantive theme selected to address essential questions in electoral studies and social science. CSES Module 5 focuses on the examination of so-called ´populist attitudes´ in the population and how they shape electoral behavior. It focuses on the the measurement of three core themes: attitudes towards political elites, attitudes towards representative democracy and majority rule, and attitudes towards out-groups. More information regarding the theme of Module 5 can be found in the CSES Module 5 Theoretical Statement available on the CSES website.

Es erforscht länderübergreifend den Zusammenhang zwischen dem Aufstieg von populistischen Parteien und der Verteilung von „populistischen“ Einstellungen innerhalb der Bevölkerung. Hauptziel des Moduls ist es, die Auffassungen der BürgerInnen von politischen Eliten, gesellschaftlichen „Out-Groups“ und nationaler Identität sowie die sich hieraus ergebenden Implikationen für repräsentative Demokratien zu analysieren. Die Daten erlauben es Forschenden somit, die Variation im Wettbewerb politischer Eliten und „populistischer“ Einstellungen über Demokratien hinweg mit einzubeziehen, und zu untersuchen, wie solche Wahrnehmungen das Wahlverhalten von BürgerInnen beeinflussen.Die Comparative Study of Electoral Systems (CSES) ist eine weltweite Kooperation von Wahlforschern. Teilnehmende Länder implementieren einen einheitlichen Fragenkomplex in ihre Nachwahlstudien. Die erhoben Daten umfassen das individuelle Wahlverhalten, politische Einstellungen und sozio-demographische Merkmale sowie Angaben zu den Wahlbezirken, den nationalen Wahlergebnissen und dem nationalen politischen System. Die einzelnen Länderstudien werden in einen gemeinsamen Datensatz integriert und stehen der Wissenschaft für vergleichende und länderübergreifende Untersuchungen frei zur Verfügung. Das CSES-Projekt konzentriert sich auf das Verhalten und die Einstellungen von Befragten während einer nationalen Wahl, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf Abstimmung und Wahlbeteiligung liegt. Jedes CSES-Modul besteht aus einer national-repräsentativen Umfrage nach den Wahlen und zusätzlichen Variablen über den Kontext des Landes und des Wahlsystems, in dem sich die Befragten befinden. Alle fünf Jahre wird ein neues CSES-Modul mit einem anderen inhaltlichen Thema entwickelt, das für die Behandlung wesentlicher Fragen der Wahl- und Sozialwissenschaften ausgewählt wurde. CSES Modul 5 konzentriert sich auf die Untersuchung der so genannten ´populistischen Einstellungen´ in der Bevölkerung und wie sie das Wahlverhalten beeinflussen. Es konzentriert sich auf die Messung von drei Kernthemen: Einstellungen gegenüber politischen Eliten, Einstellungen gegenüber repräsentativer Demokratie und Mehrheitsregierung sowie Einstellungen gegenüber Außengruppen. Weitere Informationen zum Thema des Moduls 5 finden Sie in der theoretischen Erklärung zum CSES-Modul 5, die auf der CSES-Website verfügbar ist.
