Abstract<\/strong><\/p>\n Switzerland is the most linguistically diverse European country and a prime example of successful ethnic power-sharing. In all linguistically mixed cantons, as well as at the national level, the executives are composed of politicians belonging to at least two different language groups. All cantonal executives are elected directly by voters, via a majoritarian (plurality) electoral system, and the levels of cross-ethnic voting behavior are quite high. These facts have been largely overlooked in the mainstream literature that has typically \u2013 but erroneously \u2013 considered Switzerland a prime example of \u201cconsociational\u201d democracy.<\/p>\n Bio<\/strong><\/p>\n Nenad Stojanovi\u0107 is a Swiss National Science Foundation Professor <\/p>\n Ethnic Power-Sharing and Cross-Ethnic Vote in Switzerland: Challenging The Consociational View Nov 26, 2021 | 3:30pm – 5.00pm(KualaLumpur) Register: shorturl.at\/lpKOZ (After registering, you will receive …<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6729,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","tags":[],"news-category":[],"class_list":["post-6728","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","newscat-news","newscat-seminar"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
