- Title
Nordic Party Members. Linkage in Troubled Times.
- Authors
Paulis, Emilien
- Abstract
Second, a member's demand for intra-party democracy is higher when (s)he holds a minority view (disagree with candidates on ideology and policy issues), suggesting potential policy implications if party members are given more say. Therefore, party membership decline is often taken as indicator of the weakening of the party linkage function and the erosion of European party democracies. Parties build organized linkages between the voters and the political decision-makers through party members and membership organizations, which are intermediate actors that channel voters' views into political institutions.
