Chapter
In the past two decades, democratic institutions have faced a crisis of representation. From authoritarian backsliding in countries with recent democratic transformations, to severe challenges to established liberal democracies, the meaning of political representation and whether and when it succeeds has become highly debated. In response to an inc...
Article
The resurgence of radical and populist parties has stimulated renewed discussions about the resilience of parliamentary democracy in Europe. This work contributes to this debate by analysing the extent to which positive parliamentarism, the prime minister’s parliamentary dissolution powers, the government’s power to table votes of confidence and th...
Article
Full-text available
Past studies on government survival in parliamentary democracies have been limited to national governments. However, most societies live in a multilevel polity where different policies are decided at distinct governmental layers. So far, the conditions triggering sub-national governments’ termination have remained unexplored. Our paper makes a twof...
Research
The dataset contains characteristics of the all motions voted by roll call vote in the first 17 legislative periods of the German Bundestag (1949-2013). It can be linked to the other two BTVote datasets containing characteristics of members of parliament and individual voting behavior on roll calls. Information on linking these datasets is provided...
Research
The dataset contains characteristics of the all members of parliament (MPs) participating in at least one roll call vote in the first 17 legislative periods of the German Bundestag (1949-2013). It can be linked to the other two BTVote datasets containing characteristics of the motions voted upon and individual voting behavior on roll calls. Informa...
Research
The dataset contains individual voting behavior of MPs on all roll call votes in the first 17 legislative periods of the German Bundestag (1949-2013). It can be linked to the other two BTVote datasets containing characteristics of members of parliament and characteristics of the motions. Information on linking these datasets is provided in the code...
Article
This research note introduces and describes new datasets covering all roll call votes (RCVs) taken in the German Bundestag from 1949 to 2013 and crucial contextual data on characteristics of the voting Members of the Bundestag (MPs) and the RCVs taken. The data cover almost 2,000 RCVs, more than 3,500 MPs and about 1,100,000 individual voting decis...
Preprint
In parliamentary democracies the survival of a government is primarily dependent on its legislative majority. A high level of disagreement across and within government parties can lead to legislative stalemate and early dissolution of the parliament. This paper provides a new approach to capture legislative conflict dynamically across the electoral...

Article
Roll call votes provide crucial data for the study of parliamentary behaviour. A novel dataset on all recorded votes in the Bundestag between 1949 and 2013 combines information on MPs’ individual voting behaviour with contextual information on the respective motions and individual characteristics of MPs. First analyses illustrate potential applicat...
Conference Paper
This paper replaces an earlier paper (June 2014) and presents some first descriptive results from a new collaborative project on recorded votes in the German Bundestag between 1949 and 2013. The paper is informed by the discussion of explanations for variations in the ‘supply’ of recorded votes in legislatures. We will briefly review some of this b...
