Resumo(s)
This chapter investigates an important implication of the cartel party
thesis: that parties’ shift from society towards the state has eroded
voters’ sense of political efficacy. More precisely, it explores whether
and to what extent parties’ financial dependence on the state shapes
electors’ feelings about the responsiveness of parties. The authors do
this by linking PPDB (Political Party Database) information with the
Comparative Study of Electoral Systems (CSES) data. The results of
their analysis show that the relationship between level of state funding
of parties and citizens’ perceptions of party responsiveness is positive,
though not strong. This is contrary to the theoretical expectations
suggested by the cartel thesis, in that electors voting for parties more
dependent on the state are not more likely to have low feelings of
political efficacy.
