Comportamento Eleitoral Aula 11 Ciencia Politica CGAE Kurt von Mettenheim
Topics • Behavioral Revolution in political science • Frequencies & Typology of Mass Belief Systems • Correlations & Issue Voting • Regressions & Causal Modeling • “The Brazilian Voter” + 15(!) years • Brazilian Democracy: Critical Elections, Party Realignments, Supercoalitions
1) Revolução Behavioralista Versus Freudian Psychology * “comportamento observado” * questionário Versus Sociologia Demográfico e dados agregados desde Durkheim: Census Comparison Para Linz = “Falha Ecológica” precisa focalizar o indivíduo
History of Public Opinion Studies • 1930s-40s Laswell & Chicago School (problem = fascism/communism & propoganda) • 1950s Stauffer “Communism & Civil Rights” (problem = Senador McCarthy & CPI anti-communist) MARCO de Método e Teoria: P. Converse: “Mass Belief Systems”
2) “Mass Belief Systems”P. Converse, 1964 Tipologia de ConceitualizaçõesdaPolítica Tipo % 1958 % 1964 --------------------------------------------------------- Ideologue 5 8 Near-Ideologue 8 12 Group Interest 20 23 Nature of Times 40 40 No Content 27 27
3) Issue VotingRange & Constraint of Mass Belief System Range: NumberofBeliefs Y N NA Privatizar? Mais Policia? Reforma Politica? Aumentar Imposto? BACEN Autonomo?
Constraint If YES Privatize, then NO Tax Increase = CORRELATION If YES BACEN Autonomo, then YES Privatize…
4) Regressions & Causal Modeling Theory: ECON Vote Test Theory? Variável = PIB, IPCA?, Gini Coefficient?
Parsimony vs Causal Weight a Party ID b f ECON g Candidate h Vote e c Ideology d
Aumentar Explicação ... 1) Vote = e + econ 2) Vote = e + (g x h) + (a x b) + (c x d) + (c x e x h) + (a x f x h) 1) R2 = 2.0 2) R2 = 9.0

5) The Brazilian Voter Eleições de 1974, 1978, 1982, 1986 Identificou a organização RÁPIDA da Opinião Pública Brasileira vs 1970 Brazil (Eleição em Regime Militar!) vs 1950s EUA (despolitizado: 1960s muda)

The Brazilian Voter cont. Chapter 6 = Party Identification in 1982 Rsq = 0.85 – 0.95 !!!! 3 Teoriassobrecomo se forma “IDENTIFICAÇÃO PARTIDÁRIA” 1) Political Socialization PID 2) Civil Society PID 3) Elections PID (Weber/Keys/Burnham: Plebiscitary Vote & Political Machines)
The Brazilian Voter cont. Chapter 7 = Issue Voting (lembra 2o marcometodológico… correlações) Rsq = 0.24 SE = Local < & National > NE / Rural = Local > & National <
The Brazilian Voter cont. Chapter 8 : Accountability * Old, Contested Concept in Political Theory (para cima, horizontal, ? ) * New Concept: Causal Logic of Public Opinion PIB/Employment Vote pro-contra GOV Q: Individual (US) vs Society (FR/Brazil) Q: Executive? Leg? Fed/State/Mun?
The Brazilian Voter cont. Chapter 9 Participation W. Gallie: “Essentially Contested Concepts” Outro marco metodológico: Análise Fatorial (1=mídia, 2=sociedade civil, 3= processo eleitoral em si) Como se cria, qual é o impacto de PARTICIPAÇÃO? Corporativismo: hierarquias Sociedade Civil: mobilização de baixo Política Partidária-Eleitoral: “Nível de Análise>”
The Brazilian Voter cont. Value of Democracy * Psychology: “Cognitive Dissonance” Vote Believe (Rustow, Luxemburg) * Tolerance: Petition/Strike/Occupy Building* Q Method: Factor Analysis: Actions/Beliefs
6) New Concepts for Brazilian Democracy 1) 1994 = Critical Election (Eleição Crítica) US = 1824, 1860, 1896, 1932, 1964 2) Toucan & PT Supercoalitions (Presidencialismo de Coalizão) 3) Multi-Party Realignment (Realinhamento Partidário) National Local Change Separation of powers Presidential & federal institutions
Classics: Max Weber & V.O. Key US Political Development "That the plebiscitary 'machine' has developed so early in America is due to the fact that there, and there alone, the executive -- this is what mattered -- the chief office of patronage, was a president elected by plebiscite." (Weber, 1946, p. 108). Critical Elections and Realignment “in which voters are … unusually deeply concerned, in which the extent of electoral involvement is relatively quite high, and in which the decisive results of the voting reveal a sharp alteration of the pre-existing cleavage within the electorate. Moreover, and perhaps this is the truly differentiating characteristic of this election, the realignment made manifest in such elections seems to persist for several succeeding elections.” (Key, 1955, p. 4)
Example: 1932 Key focuses on the persistence of votes shifting to democrats in New England in 1924 and 1928 thereafter, Followers focus on 1932 as the critical election: one with (just under) a 20 percent drop for republicans and (just under) a 20 percent increase for democrats:
Critical Elections in US History 1) Jacksonian democrats (1828 election), 2) Republican ascendancy after civil war and the end of slavery (1860 election) 3) The rise of corporate capitalism and republican defeat of populism (1896 election), 4) The depression and New Deal (1932 election), 5) Decline of the democratic south as either a 1948+ secular realignment or a critical election in 1964 or 1994.
