This led to a scientific debate on the influence of grievances on political participation. Previous studies have shown that individual affectedness leads to 'exiting', whereas in times of crisis grievances lead to increased political participation. What all these studies have in common is that they solely investigate actual deprivation. The present study adds a new aspect and examines if the individual risk perception of becoming deprived influences political participation. Does the individual risk perception of becoming deprived influence political participation and, if so, does this depend on the economic context? Based on grievance theory and using data from the European Social Survey and the World Bank, this study shows that the personal risk of becoming deprived increases the likelihood of participation. However, the participation-enhancing effect of one's own risk perception is diminished when individuals live in an economically weak country and thus see no chance of improvement. This underlines that context plays a role and that economically deteriorating situations in the country can reduce participation rates.Supplementary information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1057/s41269-023-00301-x.","PeriodicalId":47211,"journal":{"name":"Acta Politica","volume":"1 1","pages":"1-19"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10182546/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45031338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Still, little is known about whether and how political participation through social media provide an alternative voicing route for discontented citizens. Guided by grievance theory, this article assesses how both electoral exit behaviour (e.g., abstaining) and attitudes of political discontent (political and media trust, political hopelessness and populism) are associated with three modes of non-electoral political participation: institutional, protest and social media participation. An online survey was administered to 720 young adults between 18 and 30 years old in Belgium. A hierarchical regression analysis showed no association between electoral exit and non-institutional participation. Furthermore, attitudes of discontent were found to not uniformly push young citizens away from institutional politics. Our results show that social media provide an important, additional political outlet for young citizens and lend support to the notion of political participation as complementary acts, rather than exclusive ones.","PeriodicalId":47211,"journal":{"name":"Acta Politica","volume":"1 1","pages":"1-30"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10088628/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43811852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
