Samenvatting

It is argued that postmaterialism plays an important role in voting behavior in the Netherlands. Analysis of data from various Dutch Parliamentary Election Studies reveals that during the economic recession 1977-1986, socioeconomic Left-Right views more accurately predicted voting behavior than did sociocultural libertarian-authoritarian views. The scarcity hypothesis explains this finding, identifying a tendency toward materialistic voting as a consequence of economic decline. Further analyses reject the socialization hypothesis. 2 Tables, 1 Figure, 14 References. Modified AA
