I need help with writing a literature review for my dissertation. My research question is “What are the underlying factors that influence voting behavior among the youth in the Maldives?”. The motivation behind this study is to address the existing gap in the literature and contributing by identifying the factors for youth voting behavior in the Maldives. For the literature review I want to explain, analyse and criticize 3-4 theories of voting and how this could apply to the Maldives. These include social identity voting theory, political socialization theory, life cycle theory and political identity theory. Political identity theory is the theory I want to choose in my theoretical framework. My hypothesis is that voter turnout among the youth in the Maldives is low due to a lack of of a political identity.
