#130 FEPS Talks ‘Political fragmentation: Do the voters simply switch sides?’

In this episode, Tarik Abou-Chadi, Associate Professor at the Nuffield College, Oxford, engages in a conversation with Ania Skrzypek, FEPS Director for Research and Training, about the reasons for the electoral decline of social democracy and the growing political fragmentation. He shares the results of his new research, which shows that while the radical right has indeed gained ground, it is not due to a transfer of the centre-left electorate.
