englischTo uncover the complex causal mechanisms that lead to the occasional democratisation of decision-making processes by party branches at the regional level, this study pursues a novel approach. It applies process-tracing and uses both data from interviews as well as party and newspaper documents. The author shows that, usually, a combination of an electoral shock, the desire for a peaceful solution to an internal conflict and tactical motives can explain a party’s decision to give its rank-and-file a say. With regard to the consequences of this novel selection method, she uses statistical methods to show that the most experienced candidate is disadvantaged in primaries, whereas women are not.

»bereichert die Dissertation von Küppers die Forschung über Urwahlen mit neuen Methoden und weiterführenden Erkenntnissen, die für das gesamte Feld innerparteilicher Demokratisierungsforschung Impulse liefern könnten.«
