b. Winners and losers of globalization (Kriesi)
c. Political integration of green-alternative-liberal and traditional-authoritarian-
nationalist voters (capitalize on social discontent)
Kriesi – cleavage politics
1. Sociocultural professionals (working class) pro-welfare state
2. Managers (service class) market solutions and free exchange)
3. Winners and losers of globalization
4. Cleavages are shaped by collective political actors, who selectively reinforce some
preferences and ignore others in the process of the translation of social divisions into
politics.
Achterberg & Houtman – value coherence
1. Economic dimension: equality

insecurity, which leads to less value coherence.

down their ideological beliefs to the masses (functionalism).

b. Intermediate
c. Partitioned: positions on one cultural attitude are barely related to positions on
others

variation in belief systems
Achterberg & Houtman – unnatural voting
1. Death of class debate
a. Unnatural voting is not driven by economic cues and class
b. Right-wing working-class voting is caused by cultural conservatism that stems
from limited cultural capital
2. Natural party for the class
a. Working class: favour economic redistribution and vote for leftist parties,
owning to their poor economic position.
b. Middle-class: held to reject economic redistribution and vote for rightist
parties, because of their privileged position.
3. Economic motives: leftist voters of the middle class are assumed to pursue economic
interest.
4. Cultural motives: (Lipset) economic values (distribution of wealth) and cultural values
(individual liberty and social order)
5. Inglehart: postmaterialism, working class authoritarianism (focus on social order) and
middle-class postmaterialism (focus on individual freedom).
6. Cultural progressiveness is caused by education
a. Education is cultural capital
b. Education leads to cultural participation
c. Social mobility
Nieuwbeerta & Ultee – class voting explanations

a. Alford: income differences increase trying to change that with voting
b. Kerr: lower general standard of living lower classes want to improve their
economic respects
c. Class mobility: social class mobility weakens class conflict
d. Macro-level theory: working in different classes of work leads to different
voting behaviours
e. Korpi: union density, union membership.
2. Non-material interest of voters (cultural)
