Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: We examine the link between income inequality and electoral turnout. We argue that the competition among political parties as well as the interplay between political parties and voters can be characterized as prisoner’s dilemmas. Following on this, we develop a theory, which predicts that countries will be characterized by one of two stable equilibria: Countries where low income individuals feel represented by political parties, are mobilized by parties, and turn out to vote; and, conversely, countries where low income individuals are not mobilized by parties and fail to vote. Based on individual level data from Sweden and the United States as well as macro-level data collected in 13 OECD democracies, we find evidence consistent with our hypotheses.
