| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to elucidate the mechanisms that voters and other political actors overcome social dilemmas and form a majority under the democratic system. To this end, I conducted laboratory experiments, survey experiments on the Internet, and national mail survey experiments. These experiments suggest that citizens who act based on their policy preferences and experience the consecutive wins in elections, tend to increase their party identification. They also tend to enhance their satisfaction with the democratic political system and to become habitual participants in political activities.
