Description
What role does identity play in politics?
Inparty and outparty identification is a key feature of politics. We investigate the structure and effect of this identification. We look at political interest as a political identity, as well as at affective polarization. In various papers we also analyze how inparty and outparty dynamics influence how we process information.
