Trabajo de Fin de Máster del Máster en Estudios Latinoamericanos, curso 2014-2016. ; [ES] Este estudio analiza el efecto de distintas estrategias de campaña electoral en los niveles de incertidumbre y variabilidad en la distribución de escaños legislativos, en el marco de un recientemente implementado sistema de voto preferente en El Salvador entre 2012 y 2015. La metodología empleada incluye el análisis cuantitativo de los resultados en cada uno de los partidos políticos mayoritarios, la identificación de mensajes de campaña en materiales audiovisuales y discursos y entrevistas a profundidad a actores relevantes. El principal hallazgo indica que el voto preferente permitió mayores niveles de variabilidad o incertidumbre en la distribución de escaños en la medida en que la campaña electoral presentó mayores niveles de personalización. Adicionalmente, el estudio abre nuevas perspectivas acerca de los efectos del voto preferente en otras temáticas tales como la personalización de la política, las relaciones clientelares en campañas, la disciplina partidaria y el sistema de partidos políticos ; [EN] This study analyses the effects of different electoral campaign strategies on uncertainty and variability levels related to the distribution of legislative seats, under a recently implemented preferential vote system in El Salvador between 2012 and 2015. The methodology used includes a quantitative analysis of the results of each one of the majoritarian political parties, the identification of campaign messages in audiovisual materials and speeches, and in-depth interviews with relevant actors. The main findings is that the preferential vote allowed higher levels of variability and uncertainty in the distribution of seats as the electoral campaign presented higher levels of personalization. Additionally, the study opens new perspectives about the effects of the preferential vote in other issues, such as the personalization of politics, clienteral relations, partisan discipline or the political party system

"In this character-driven narrative history, Aram Goudsouzian portrays the key transformations that played out over that dramatic year. It was the last 'old politics' campaign, where political machines and party bosses determined the major nominees, even as the 'new politics' of grassroots participation powered primary elections. It was an election that showed how candidates from both the Left and Right could seize on 'hot-button' issues to alter the larger political dynamic. It showcased the power of television to 'package' politicians and political ideas, and it played out against an extraordinary dramatic global tableau of chaos and conflict. More than anything else, it was a moment decided by a contest of political personalities, as a group of men battled for the presidency, with momentous implications for the nation's future ... Goudsouzian's book chronicles anew the characters and events of the 1968 campaign as an essential moment in American history, one with clear resonance in our contemporary political moment"--

"The Making of British Socialism provides a new interpretation of the emergence of British socialism in the late nineteenth century, demonstrating that it was not a working-class movement demanding state action, but a creative campaign of political hope promoting social justice, personal transformation, and radical democracy."--Provided by publisher

The main purpose of this article is to show the role of polls in the last presidential electoral process in Mexico. The thesis of the author is that polls aimed not only to inform about the tendencies of the campaigns but were also used as political instruments. Throughout the campaign, polls were used by different political forces as mechanisms to induce the vote showing the electorate that the candidate of their choice was ahead. This affects credibility of the instrument risking its use to predict results in the future. The author argues that it is necessary to design mechanisms to make this methodology credible again. 2 Tables, 4 Graphs, 7 References. Adapted from the source document.

Current research suggests that gender prejudice no longer impedes women from winning top-level political positions. Nevertheless, the number of women in all levels of political office remains startlingly low— meriting a closer look at the role of gender prejudice. This study takes an experimental look at how voters respond to female candidates pushing unambiguous, tough policy stands. Interestingly, voters seem to infer that women possess traditional "feminine" strengths even when they emit a clear "masculine" message. Therefore, female candidates should not fear visceral reactions from voters if they assume an aggressive campaign posture. Rather, this "masculine" approach may be the optimal campaign strategy for women seeking top-level or administrative positions.

The Lebanese parliamentary election was a very decisive moment in the country's history. As a result of this election, a new parliamentary majority and discourse dominated the political scene. The election was also peculiar concerning the disability cause in Lebanon. For the first time in the history of Lebanon's elections, disability became an issue. In fact, the Lebanese disability movement succeeded in launching two different but complementary campaigns during the election. The first one was engineered by both the Lebanese Physical Handicapped Union and the Youth Blind Association. Under the title "Haqqi" or "My Right," the campaign focused on the right of people with disability to practice one of their most important rights: the political right to vote.

This article presents a case study of the CAP! Comcast campaign produced and distributed by the Media Mobilizing Project (MMP) in Philadelphia. The framing and distribution strategies of this campaign, which fought for and won concessions from Comcast during the 2015 franchise negotiation with the city, are analyzed to foreground the labor of policy advocates working within networked communications. The author complicates the often-celebrated potential of social movements that use digital technologies and social media by detailing the multifaceted frame-setting and distribution tactics employed by MMP organizers throughout this campaign. Rather than analyze what frames the news media applies to SMOs, this article reviews how activists developed campaign messages, through media, that challenged existing narratives. Understanding the political and socioeconomic conditions that underlie the work of social movements is necessary for a review of the messaging, organizing, and relationship-building efforts of activists working toward meaningful media policy reform.

I develop a model of electoral competition with partisan campaign support. Voters' utilities are defined over candidate locations and the amounts of party campaign support that they receive. Parties' utilities are defined over the location of the winning candidate and how much support they dole out for their candidates. Analytical results identify cases in which parties will successfully pull the electorally induced preferences of their members away from their median voters' ideal points and towards the party's most favored policies. Equilibrium results yield several testable hypotheses. First, candidate policy positions and parties' campaign contributions should be responsive to district partisan predisposition, independent of the policy preferences of a district's median voter. Second, uncontested elections should occur more often in politically-lopsided districts than in districts where there are more even levels of political competition. Finally, there should be an inverse relationship between candidate policy extremity and partisan campaign support.
