The overarching goal of this collection is to examine whether Internet technology overrides and reshapes electoral political systems or whether the contextual make-up of a political system (i.e. the nature of the party system, the rules governing the election process, the role played by the conventional media during campaigns, and the level of access to the Internet) determines how Internet technologies are used. In order to achieve this goal, Ward (politics, U. of Salford, UK), Owen (political science, Georgetown U., US), Davis (political science, Brigham Young U., US), and Taras (political science, U. of Calgary, Canada) present 12 national case studies examining the relationship between Internet communication and party and candidate electoral strategies. The case studies include established and newer democracies, presidential and parliamentary systems, libertarian and government-restricted media environments, societies with varying degrees of Internet access, and countries with varying methods of electing political leaders.
