Abstract:
There is a large body of literature that examines the effect of labour unions on voter turnout. The empirical findings consistently point at the positive impact unions have on voter turnout. However, to the best of my knowledge no study accounts for the factors that affect union membership. Based on data from 20 advanced industrial democracies observed between 1960 and 2015, this study examined the socioeconomic factors influencing union membership that influence voter participation.
