Increasing electoral volatility and the rise in the number of 'floating voters' suggest that campaigns have become more important than ever. Most of what we know--or think we know--about campaigns comes from the US, supplemented with evidence from a handful of countries in the 'Anglosphere'. The last decade has witnessed an explosion of interest in campaigns in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, and Italy. These countries vary widely in institutional setting, party system characteristics, sociology, and media structures. The papers on this panel explore psychological, sociological, strategic, and media factors in vote switching and mobilisation within campaigns.
