# Predeclared case-selection rules
|
|
|
|
These rules were recorded before inspecting the selected parties' position estimates.
|
|
|
|
## Trajectory figure
|
|
|
|
The figure will use parties selected for cross-national recognition, family diversity, long election coverage, and relevance to interpreting movement on the two scales. Selection is not based on the magnitude of the estimated movement.
|
|
|
|
Preselected parties:
|
|
|
|
- Germany: Social Democratic Party of Germany (PartyFacts 383)
|
|
- Germany: Christian Democratic Union (PartyFacts 1375)
|
|
- United Kingdom: Labour Party (PartyFacts 1516)
|
|
- United Kingdom: Conservative Party (PartyFacts 1567)
|
|
- Denmark: Social Democratic Party, short name SD (PartyFacts 379)
|
|
- Sweden: Sweden Democrats (PartyFacts 409)
|
|
- United States: Democratic Party (PartyFacts 432)
|
|
- United States: Republican Party (PartyFacts 809)
|
|
|
|
The final display may use a subset only to preserve legibility, but exclusions must be based on panel layout or insufficient coverage rather than unattractive results. Both posterior means and 95% latent-position credible intervals will be shown. Text will not infer a cause of movement from the estimates alone.
|
|
|
|
## Two-dimensional landmarks
|
|
|
|
Landmarks will be selected from recognizable party-election cases, with representation of economically left/right, culturally cosmopolitan/traditionalist, and moderate combinations. Target years are declared before checking exact positions; if the requested year is absent, the nearest election within three years will be used and disclosed.
