When the number of voters falls - considerations on the problem of low voter turnout

August 2004, Werner T. Bauer, 29 pages

This study will make the attempt to briefly summarize the manifold causes for the increasing abstention from voting and to examine whether the recipes suggested are suited to counteract this development. The question as to whether falling voter turnout does actually exist or whether it is only the “excited alarmism” of some media and social scientists, who regard it among other as a legitimation for their own dealing with the subject, will also be answered.
