Partidos na república de 1946: uma réplica metodológica

Nicolau, Jairo

Resumen

This article discusses some questions raised by Wanderley Guilherme dos Santos in the article "Old Theses, New Data: A Methodological Analysis", published in Dados - Revista de Ciências Sociais. The paper focuses particularly on an important methodological discussion, namely the measurement of political events. Two topics in the party system are specifically explored: the dispersion of Congressional voting and power (fragmentation rates) and territorial dispersion of voting (partisan nationalization rates).

Palabras-clave: political parties; elections; Chamber of Deputies.
