| description |
Exchanging one's vote for particularistic benefits - practices usually grouped under 'clientelism' - is often thought to weaken programmatic links between citizens and politicians and disincentivize public good provision, as well as undermine voter autonomy and the ideal role of elections. However, empirically analyzing this key phenomenon for the working of democracies entails formidable challenges. We conduct list experiments on a large sample of households to estimate the incidence of clientelistic vote buying, as well as the extent to which respondents refrain from openly recognizing this behavior. Nearly one out of every five respondents engage in clientelism and, surprisingly, they do not feel ashamed to admit it. Using the literature to guide our analysis, we examine the robust correlates of clientelism, finding that vote buying increases with poverty, reciprocity, disregard for the rule of law and, challenging several theories, interest in politics. |

Sin embargo, es difícil analizar empíricamente este crucial comportamiento para la democracia. Para superar este reto, aplicamos experimentos de lista a una muestra grande de hogares para estimar la incidencia de la venta de votos y calcular qué tanto los encuestados se abstienen de reconocer abiertamente este comportamiento. Casi uno de cada cinco encuestados se involucra en el clientelismo y, sorprendentemente, no se sienten avergonzados de admitirlo. Usando la literatura existente como guía, examinamos la incidencia y correlaciones más sobresalientes del clientelismo, encontrando que la compra de votos aumenta con la pobreza, la reciprocidad, el desconocimiento del imperio de la ley y, desafiando varias teorías, el interés por la política.27 páginas, 13 páginas sin numerarapplication/pdfspaUniversidad de los Andes, Facultad de Economía, CEDEDocumentos CEDE No. 20 Marzo de 2017https://ideas.repec.org/p/col/000089/015443.htmlI sell my vote, and so what? : a new database and evidence from ColombiaVendo mi voto, ¿y qué? : una nueva base de datos y evidencia para ColombiaDocumento de trabajoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/workingPaperhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_8042http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Texthttps://purl.org/redcol/resource_type/WPClientelismVote buyingSocial desirability biasList experimentsClientelismo - ColombiaDelitos electorales - ColombiaVoto - Aspectos sociales - ColombiaC83, C93, D72, D73Facultad de EconomíaPublicationTEXTdcede2017-20.pdf.txtdcede2017-20.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain122269https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/303b6f1d-9b02-49af-8d2c-76577b9d0807/download2b89e9ca28bcf559be45d33203ab863dMD54ORIGINALdcede2017-20.pdfdcede2017-20.pdfapplication/pdf711065https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/2d33d21d-351b-47b0-bb12-c5acb4f1eaa2/download2740e65d09e344b0d616f6e7e90e4160MD51THUMBNAILdcede2017-20.pdf.jpgdcede2017-20.pdf.jpgIM Thumbnailimage/jpeg10603https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/85520a06-68d5-4199-b603-b8bb8829bf19/download05c75de63a039b0598b69bd5ece2bcbeMD551992/8688oai:repositorio.uniandes.edu.co:1992/86882024-06-04 15:36:55.295http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/open.accesshttps://repositorio.uniandes.edu.coRepositorio institucional Sénecaadminrepositorio@uniandes.edu.co |
