Resumo(s)
Most studies on the interaction
between political parties and interest groups rely on organiza-
tional or ideological/programmatic linkages. However, leader-
ship overlap can also be a relevant dimension not only because
of the increasing importance of informal relations between the
two types of political actors but also given the mutual bene-
fits these ties have in terms of decision-making processes.
Drawing on an original dataset of party and interest group
elite networks, this study examines party-group connections
by relying on the profile of leadership in Portugal and inves-
tigates whether the crisis has affected the links between these
actors. The findings indicate that leadership overlap is rather
weak and that it mostly concerns trade unions and left-wing
parties. Finally, these linkages demonstrate substantial stability
over time, suggesting the importance of ideological proximity.
