Understanding citizens' decision to vote or to abstain in elections is crucial, especially when turnout is declining. In this book, AndreÌ Blais and Jean-François Daoust provide an original and elegant model that explains why people vote, based on four factors: political interest, sense of civic duty, perceived importance of the election, and ease of voting. Their findings are strongly supported by empirical evidence from elections in five countries. The analysis is compelling and demonstrates the power of their model to provide a provocative and parsimonious explanation of voter turnout in elections."-- $c Provided by publisher. 530 $a Issued also in electronic formats. 505 0 $a The decision to vote or not to vote -- Who votes? -- Do I like politics? -- Do I have a duty to vote? -- Do I care about the outcome? -- Is it easy to vote? -- Is voting a habit? -- Does it all depend on the context? -- Conclusion -- Appendices. 650 0 $a Elections. 650 0 $a Voting. 650 0 $a Voting research. 650 0 $a Political participation. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Blais, AndreÌ, 1947- $t Motivation to vote. $d Vancouver ; Toronto : UBC Press, 2020 $z 9780774862691 $z 9780774862691 $w (OCoLC)1126790950 700 1 $a Daoust, Jean-François, $d 1992- $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20201103013735.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5C89E972BC2911EAAC3CDF0297128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
