Abstract

What role does biology play for people’s involvement in politics? What is the role of core values and norms? The panel aims at examining the effect of stable predispositions on political activism: the role of genes, personality traits, and norms and core values on various forms of political political activism (protest, voting, social media activism, political engagement). The panel includes quantitative as well as qualitative papers.
