Monitoring Electoral Democracy (MEDem) is an emerging European research infrastructure that aims to link many existing comparative as well as national projects that study the functioning of electoral democracy in Europe and to bring comparative research on European electoral democracies to a new level. While this is an ongoing initiative, the formal goal of MEDem is to gain a position on the ESFRI roadmap in recognition of its central and strategic scientific importance for European social and political research. The Swedish national election study program (SNES) is a leading partner in this project.
