Bolognesi, B., Ribeiro, E., & Codato, A.. (2023). A New Ideological Classification of Brazilian Political Parties. Dados, 66(2), e20210164. Just as democratic politics changes, so does the perception about the parties out of which it is composed. This paper’s main purpose is to provide a new and updated ideological classification of Brazilian political parties. To do so, we applied a survey to political scientists in 2018, asking them to position each party on a left-right continuum and, additionally, to indicate their major goal: to pursue votes, government offices, or policy issues. Our findings indicate a centrifugal force acting upon the party system, pushing most parties to the right. Furthermore, we show a prevalence of patronage and clientelistic parties, which emphasize votes and offices rather than policy. keywords: political parties; political ideology; survey; party models; elections

Ruling elite and the functioning of political institutions

Our panel section will discuss papers on the relationship between the attributes of ruling elite and the functioning of political institutions. Our panel aims at gathering works on social profiles of different types of elites as well as their recruitment mechanisms. We welcome analyses that focus on multiple aspects affecting elite behavior (f.i. social, economic, ideological, institutional, and contextual variables), either at strictly decision-making processes or in the field of elite-institutions relationship. The studies submitted to this panel may be produced on account of diverse research methods; accordingly, they may be case studies or historical analysis. Preferentially, we encourage approaches that propitiate comparisons between elites in international ambit.
