Intergenerational transmission of political party preference in the Netherlands
Article Abstract:
A study analyzing the data from a national survey of high school students in the Netherlands in 1991, to examine the intergenerational transmission of political party preference, shows a fairly strong parental political socialization in the Netherlands. Politically homogenous parents are more successful in transmitting their political preference to their children. On the other hand, the heterogeneous parents are relatively less successful in transmitting their political preferences to their children.
