Resumen
CLERICI, Paula. LA INFLUENCIA DE LA DICOTOMÍA OFICIALISMO/ OPOSICIÓN SOBRE LA CONGRUENCIA DE LAS COALICIONES ELECTORALES EN ARGENTINA. Postdata [online]. 2018, vol.23, n.1, pp.1-19. ISSN 1851-9601.
Recent studies have concluded that the electoral calendar and the nationalization of the party system are causal influences on the con-gruence of electoral coalitions. However, there is an important difference between ruling party and opposition. The fact that the gov-ernment has constant exposure to the elec-torate, controls public resources, is able to “discipline” the governors, and enjoys the possibility of cartelizing the legislative power, all these factors places the party in a favorable position to have a more congruent electoral coalition strategy. For these same reasons, but on the contrary, opposition tends to frag-ment and, therefore, their coalitions will tend to reflect local and differentiated scenarios. This research finds that in Argentina between 1983 and 2013, the electoral calendar and the nationalization of the party system do not alter the level of ruling party’s electoral coalition congruence. They only generate a causal impact on the opposition.
