This article investigates how unemployment risk within households affects voting for the radical right. The authors contribute to recent advances in the literature that have highlighted the role of economic threat for understanding the support of radical-right parties. In contrast to existing work, the authors do not treat voters as atomistic individuals; they instead investigate households as a crucial site of preference formation. Combining largescale labor market data with comparative survey data, they confirm the expectations of their theoretical framework by demonstrating that the effect of occupational unemployment risk on radical-right support is strongly conditioned by household-risk constellations. Voting for the radical right is a function not only of a voter’s own risk, but also of his or her partner’s risk. The article provides additional evidence on the extent to which these effects are gendered and on the mechanisms that link household risk and party choice. The results imply that much of the existing literature on individual risk exposure potentially underestimates its effect on political behavior due to the neglect of multiplier effects within households.

家庭内部的经济风险和激进权利的投票

本文调查了家庭内的失业风险如何影响对激进右翼的投票。作者对文献的最新进展做出了贡献,这些进展强调了经济威胁在理解激进右翼政党的支持方面的作用。与现有工作相比,作者并不将选民视为原子个体;相反,他们将家庭作为偏好形成的关键场所进行调查。他们将大规模劳动力市场数据与比较调查数据相结合,通过证明职业失业风险对激进右翼支持的影响强烈受家庭风险星座的影响,证实了他们理论框架的预期。投票给激进右翼不仅取决于选民自己的风险,也取决于他或她的伴侣的风险。这篇文章提供了额外的证据,说明这些影响在多大程度上是性别化的,以及将家庭风险与政党选择联系起来的机制。结果表明,由于忽略了家庭内部的乘数效应,许多关于个人风险暴露的现有文献可能低估了其对政治行为的影响。
