Abstract
Recent years have witnessed a world-wide decrease in local political interest and participation, reflected in marked falls in turnout in local elections. In Norway, only 59 per cent of voters went to the polls in the last local elections, the lowest figure since the 1920s. This decline of interest in politics is also evident in an increasing unwillingness among the public to seek party membership (Bjorklund, 1998: 51), while political parties often report problems of recruiting candidates for local elections (Rasmussen, 1993: 113).
