The main aim of this article is to describe and explain the relevant socio-psychological and political science characteristics of the pre- and post-electoral behaviour and electoral choices offered by political parties at the first early elections to the National Assembly held in December 2011. The analysed elections are an important milestone in the evolution of the Slovenian democratic parliamentary and party system and behaviour at the national level. The article examines the instability of the electoral capital of the electorate, as well as the decrease in parties' electoral capital with respect to modes of the future democratic governance system and related problem-solving.

Namen tega prispevka je prek analize izbranih socio-psiholoških in politoloških dejavnikov opisati in pojasniti ključne značilnosti pred- inpovolilnega vedènja in vsebinskih volilnih izbir, kot so jih volivcem ponujale politične stranke na prvih predčasnih volitvah v državni zbor leta 2011. Omenjene volitve so eden od pomembnih mejnikov v razvoju slovenske demokratične parlamentarne in strankarske izkušnje na nacionalni ravni, saj so v dosedanje volilne prakse in vedènje vnesle kar nekaj posebnosti. Te se v članku kažejo skozi rast nestabilnosti volilnega telesa, upad strankarskega volilnega kapitala in ponujenih načinov demokratičnega vladanja ter reševanja problemov. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
