Faglige interesser

Umits interesser ligger innenfor to brede områder: Aktørers oppførsel innenfor parlamentarisk representasjon, som for eksempel medborgere og demokratiske valg, og deres representanter i parlamenter. Det andre området relaterer til interaksjon mellom folkeopinion og politikk, og spesielt hvordan opinion og politikk former hverandre.

Han har tidligere studert europastudier ved University of Tampere og University of Kent, og statsvitenskap og offentlig administrasjon (Middle East Technical University).

Despite a widespread public support for wind energy in general, wind turbine proposals attract a considerable amount of public opposition. At a time of political commitments to building more wind turbines for climate risk mitigation, we study the potential causes of this opposition and its electoral effects. Our analysis draws on a survey experiment in Switzerland, where the number of wind turbines will grow from a couple of dozens to many hundreds in the next three decades. We find that exposure to wind turbines increases public acceptance, but this affect does not translate into electoral turnout or vote choice. Moreover, locality or politicisation does not seem to have an effect at all—neither on acceptance nor on electoral outcomes. Our results suggest that voters do not reward or punish political parties for their positions on wind energy, even when turbines might soon be rising in their local area.
