      abstract = {This book identifies the different forms that protest  voting can take in times when populism flourishes. Contrary  to the popular view of protest voting as merely venting  frustration, this book argues that protest voting can also  be conceived of as a strategic signal of discontent,  originating from sources, such as party policy positions.  The empirical analyses rest on election survey data  collected in democratic countries around the world between  2005 and 2017 to understand protest voting as a strategic  signal, and the conditions under which it occurs. The main  results show that protest voting can indeed be a strategic  signal. This finding challenges the predominant view in the  literature and the public discourse of protest voters as  aimless, frustrated voters. About the author Christian H.
