Mapping Policy Preferences from Texts: Statistical Solutions for Manifesto Analysts
Andrea Volkens
Policy targets and political preferences are summarised in documents such as party manifestos. This book describes how these can be analysed quantitatively, by counting sentences devoted to each policy area. The numbers form policy indicators which can be related to government actions and spending. The book discusses problems with such analyses.
