Intro to Comparative Politics
The behavioral perspective is an approach in political science that focuses on the actions and behaviors of individuals and groups, particularly in relation to voting and political participation. This perspective emphasizes that individual choices, shaped by social, economic, and psychological factors, drive political outcomes rather than solely relying on institutional structures or ideologies. Understanding these behaviors helps to explain how people decide whom to vote for and how those decisions impact electoral results.
