- Back H., Debus M., Muller J. and Back H. Regional government formation in varying multilevel contexts: a comparison of eight European countries, Regional Studies. Although governance in multilevel settings has become a prominent research field in political science, there are few comparative studies that focus on explaining sub-national coalition outcomes in such settings. This paper sets out to study regional government formation in eight European countries and it builds on a dataset that covers information on the policy preferences of parties drawn from regional election manifestos. The results show that parties at the regional level are likely to form congruent coalitions, that is, copying' the patterns of national government formation, and that they are more likely to do so in specific regional contexts.

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In the big city – as perhaps in all human interaction – there are centrifugal and centripetal forces. The big city is a system of human interaction with particular characteristics. A large number of people crowd in a comparatively small space. Through spatial differentiation and specialisation productivity of goods and services can be augmented as well as providing a more varied supply. The thus attainable gains in living conditions constitute the driving force of centripetalism. Simultaneously there are externalities of consumption and production that work as a driving force of centrifugalism. Especially residential areas are thrown farther and farther into the periphery. In this paper I describe the Swedish metropolitan regions in terms of the outcomes of these centripetal-centrifugal forces.

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- (Book:) With this book we aim at describing and analysing the selection, daily life, networks and values of local top political leaders in seventeen European countries. The empirical nourishment to the investigation into town halls across Europe is a survey conducted in 2003 with mayors and corresponding top local political leaders. The data covering responses from 2700 leaders is a unique and rich material allowing descriptions and analyses pursuing a number of lines of inquiry.
