| dc.description.abstract | Techniques from corpus linguistics are applied to the analysis of a number of European
right-wing parties in an effort to extend methods for ranking parties on a left-right spectrum
within and across countries and languages. Focus is placed on parties not in government, and
analysis is derived from corpora derived from election manifestos published by those parties.
The techniques applied are objective in that they apply statistical measures with confidence
tests to objectively quantifiable linguistic features of the documents. Valid applicability of
the techniques is demonstrated. The methods are then used to estimate pairwise similarity
of a number of European political parties, including cross-national comparisons. | en |
