Campaign finance in den USA
In: Österreichische Zeitschrift für Politikwissenschaft, Volume 31, Issue 1, p. 41-59
"Die USA stellen einen exemplarischen Fall für exponentiell steigende Wahlkampfausgaben, fragwürdige Finanzierungspraktiken und ein de facto kollabiertes Regelungssystem dar. Anhand der aktuellen Diskussion um die Wahlkampffinanzierung werden drei Problemperspektiven angesprochen: Erstens geht es um die Erforschung der Ursachen des steigenden Kapitalbedarfs kompetitiver Wahlkämpfe in den USA als Musterbeispiel einer Teledemokratie. Aus demokratietheoretischer Sicht zu diskutieren sind zweitens die aus finanziellen Wettbewerbsnachteilen resultierenden Konsequenzen eines verzerrten demokratischen Wettbewerbs. Finanz- und kapitalstarke Wettbewerber werden begünstigt, Personen und Gruppen, die über keine hinreichende Unterstützung finanzstarker Interessenlagen verfügen, werden zu chancenlosen Außenseitern gemacht. Die fortschreitende Verflechtung politischer und wirtschaftlicher Interessen führt zu Abhängigkeiten gewählter Amtsträger und erhöhter Korruptionsanfälligkeit. Drittens erfolgt eine kritische Auseinandersetzung mit der geltenden Regelungslage, um die Transparenz und Chancengleichheit des demokratischen Wettbewerbs sicherzustellen. Reformen zur Beseitigung bestehender Defizite des aktuellen Rechts werden abschließend dargestellt." (Autorenreferat)

Salience and health campaigns
Motivated by current topics in health economics, we apply the theory of salience to consumer policy. If a government intends to stifle healthier diets without harming consumers by raising taxes, it could initiate information campaigns which focus consumers' attention either on the healthiness of one item or the unhealthiness of the other item. According to our approach, both campaigns work, but it is more efficient to proclaim the unhealthiness of one product in order to present it as a "bad." Our findings imply that comparative advertisement is particularly efficient for entrant firms into established markets.

Fighting "Change" in Congressional Campaigns
In: American review of politics, Volume 30, p. 107-113
ISSN: 1051-5054
The results of the 2008 election cycle were historic. After all of the votes were tallied, Senator Barack Obama garnered more votes than his principal opponent, Senator John McCain. Although the election brought the first African-American president to Washington, there is a lot more to the story. Congressional campaigns are often overshadowed by the presidential campaign and thereby left out of the post-election discussion. This is a mistake. Campaigns for House and Senate seats are just as important to how the nation will move ahead on serious issues in the coming years. Congress, after all, is responsible for delivering to President Obama the legislation that makes up his agenda. In 2008 congressional Democrats increased their margins in both the House and the Senate and returned the Democratic Party to unified control of government. The articles in this special issue of the American Review of Politics examine six important congressional campaigns and help tell the story of the 2008 election, beyond Barack Obama's historic victory.
