How To Win Arguments With Numbers

In this season we look at different issues surrounding elections. In the second episode we talk to Dr. Ruth Dassonneville from Université de Montréal about the changing relationship between voters and parties. We look into how voting behaviour has changed over the last few decades. Election results are more unpredictable now, with parties having less of an influence over voters than they used to. We talk about the consequences of this for democracy. The University of Kent Q-Step Centre is part of a multi-million pound national initiative to foster a step change in the quantitative and statistical skills of social sciences undergraduates.
