Does Taking Sides Encourage Radicalization? The US and Iranian Messages in the 2009 Elections in Lebanon
with Daniel Corstange from the University of Maryland
We conducted a series of survey experiments in the wake of the Lebanese Parliamentary elections in June 2009 to understand the reaction of voters to two different types of electoral interventions from the outside: a one-sided message of support for a particular partisan slate vs a message of support for the democratic process. Our first paper to come out of that project is available here. We thank ISPS at Yale University, the MacMillan Center at Yale and the University of Maryland for generous financial support. We thank Information International in Beirut, Lebanon, and specifically Alicia Jammal for dedicated service to the project.
