THE METHODOLOGICAL TURN IN CONTEMPORARY STUDIES OF PUBLIC POLICY AND MANAGEMENT IN THE ELECTORAL PROCESS
Abstract
The paper examines the importance of the methodological debates of the 2010s, occurring in the study of electoral governance Until the mid-2000s subjectivist approach of the theory of rational choice almost unchallenged dominated in this scientific field (K. Benoi, J.. Colomer et al.). Objectivist trend in the study of public policy in the electoral process was poorly represented with methodology of institutionalism (R. Dalton). Since the mid-2000s there is a growing criticism of the rational choice theory (R. Katz, P. Norris, M. Gallagher). Subsequently, there were several models aimed at combining the methodological possibilities of rational choice theory and objectivist approach. The article describes the approaches proposed by P. Norris, D. Ball, K. Jacobs
