La "langue de bois" au Royaume-Uni au 21ème siècle : une étude sémiolinguistique du parler politique contemporain / "Doublespeak" in the United Kingdom in the 21st century : a semiolinguistic study of contemporary political speech

Nimtz, Julie 09 November 2018 (has links)
Cette thèse se donne pour objet l’étude du fonctionnement de ce que l’on appelle « langue de bois » dans le discours politique contemporain au Royaume-Uni. Cet hyperonyme désigne un ensemble de stratégies déployées en langue, selon des modes divers, à des fins manipulatoires. Ce travail distingue ainsi, au sein de ce discours « codé », des procédés linguistiques qui relèvent de ce que nous appelons parler politique contemporain qui, insidieusement, diffuse une idéologie dominante. Bien qu’aucun procédé, linguistique ou rhétorique, ne soit intrinsèquement manipulatoire, ce parler remplit différentes fonctions selon le contexte (linguistique, générique, situationnel). L’exploration d’un corpus de general election manifestos comparé à un corpus d’éditoriaux britanniques vise à mettre au jour le fonctionnement sémiolinguistique de ce parler, manifestation d’une activité de construction de valeurs idéologiques et/ou de manipulation langagière. Notre étude linguistique s’appuie sur la Théorie des Opérations Prédicatives et Énonciatives d’A. Culioli, complétée par le recours à d’autres théories (Analyse du/des Discours et sémiotique). Les phénomènes linguistiques sont contextualisés au moyen d’autres disciplines (sociologie et sciences politiques). Partant du principe que le sens idéologique et les valeurs destinées à être reconnues, reconstruites et interprétées, sont construits dans et par l’énonciation, nous montrons, au moyen de l’analyse de marqueurs (WILL, SHALL, WOULD, les pronoms personnels YOU, WE, I) et de notions (/change/ et /be green/), que la co-énonciation est une clé essentielle pour la compréhension des stratégies manipulatoires mises en œuvre au sein de ce parler. Les opérations fondamentales de « représentation », « référenciation », « régulation » (Culioli) et les stratégies de naturalisation et/ou d’oubli (Barthes/Pécheux) déployées au sein des textes se présentent sous différentes formes, parmi lesquelles on peut citer l’ajustement anticipatif paratextuel, et le brouillage des frontières entre différents niveaux de spécification du paramètre S de la situation d’énonciation ou entre les différentes valeurs construites par les auxiliaires de modalité/les notions. / The purpose of this thesis is to study the workings of what is usually called “langue de bois” in French (Newspeak or Doublespeak) in the field of politics in the United Kingdom. The collocation refers to a set of strategies implemented within political discourse, according to various modes, for manipulative purposes. We propose to differentiate between Newspeak-like strategies and linguistic processes belonging to the realm of contemporary political speech (CPS) which circulates a dominant ideology insidiously. Although no process, be it linguistic or rhetorical, is inherently manipulative, CPS fulfils various functions depending on the context (linguistic, generic, situational). The study of a corpus of general election manifestos compared to a corpus of editorials aims at uncovering the semiolinguistic workings of CPS, the expression of how ideological values and/or linguistic manipulation are constructed. Our linguistic study is conducted through the lens of the Theory of Predicative and Enunciative Operations (A. Culioli), supported by comparisons with other linguistic theories (Discourse Analysis and semiotics). The linguistic phenomena are contextualized by means of other disciplines (sociology and political sciences). Considering the fact that ideological meaning and values designed to be recognized, reconstructed and interpreted, are constructed through and by uttering, we show, through the analysis of markers (WILL, SHALL, WOULD, and the pronouns YOU, WE, I) and of notions (/change/ and /be green/), that co-enunciation is essential to the understanding of manipulative strategies that are implemented within CPS. The fundamental operations of “representation”, “referencing”, “regulation” (Culioli) and naturalisation/forgetting processes (Barthes/Pécheux) that are implemented within the texts arise in various forms. Among these forms, markers of anticipatory paratextual adjustment, and the scrambling of boundaries between the levels of specification of the subjective parameter of the situation of uttering or between the various values constructed by modal auxiliaries/notions can be mentioned.

Le droit électoral de l'entreprise / The emergence of a electoral right firm

Bouhayoufi, Aziza 15 December 2016 (has links)
Le droit électoral de l’entreprise est un droit en construction. Largement influencé par le droit électoral politique, il fait appel à des mécanismes propres. La spécificité des élections en entreprise impose la mise en place de règles adaptées. C’est ce dont s’efforce le législateur et la Cour de cassation. Mais la trop grande particularité de ces élections complexifie la construction d’un droit claire et cohérent. Les élections professionnelles dans l’entreprise ont de nombreuses fonctions ; elles permettent aux salariés de choisir leurs représentants mais également, depuis la loi du 20 août 2008 portant rénovation de la démocratie sociale et réforme du temps de travail, de mesurer la représentativité des syndicats permettant à ces derniers notamment de négocier des accords collectifs. Le droit électoral de l’entreprise doit prendre en considération un trop grand nombre d’éléments. Il doit articuler les différentes fonctions des élections professionnelles dans l’entreprise et tenir compte de la spécificité du cadre d’organisation et des sujets, ce qui en fait un droit imparfait / Company’s electoral law is a law in the process of development. Largely influenced by the election political law, it appeals to specific mechanisms. The particularity of company’s elections imposes the introduction of appropriate rules. This is what both the legislator and the Court of Cassation are attempting to ensure. But the major specific feature of these elections complicates the construction of a law in a clear and coherent manner. The company’s professional elections have numerous functions ; they allow employees to choose their representatives and since the law of August 20th, 2008 on the renovation of social democracy and the reform of working time, they also enable to measure the representativeness of trade unions, allowing the latter to negotiate collective agreements. Company’s electoral law has to take into account too many elements. It should articulate different functions of professional elections in the company and take into account organizational framework and issues specificities, which makes it an imperfect law.

O império revisitado: instabilidade ministerial, Câmara dos Deputados e poder moderador (1840 - 1889) / The revisited Empire: ministerial instability, House of Representatives and moderating power (1840-1889)

Ferraz, Sérgio Eduardo 18 April 2012 (has links)
Este trabalho tem por propósito central investigar as razões da instabilidade ministerial no Segundo Reinado (1840-1889), bem como o papel desempenhado, na produção desse fenômeno, pelas relações entre o governo e a Câmara dos Deputados. A partir do exame de todos os episódios de substituição de gabinetes no período histórico mencionado, elabora-se uma classificação das razões de retirada dos ministérios, com foco na eventual atuação política da Coroa e da Câmara dos Deputados nesses eventos. Ao contrário do que supõe a literatura convencional, que salienta o papel autônomo da Coroa na substituição dos governos, o trabalho constata que conflitos, efetivos ou potenciais, entre gabinetes e o Poder Legislativo, em especial a Câmara, foram os principais fatores associados à rotatividade governamental no Segundo Reinado. Explora-se, a partir daí, a hipótese de que a introdução de regras eleitorais distritalizadas, no sistema político da época, a partir da década de 1850, em substituição ao regime prévio de listas, ao alterar os incentivos a que estavam submetidos os principais agentes políticos imperiais, desempenhou um papel central na geração daqueles conflitos, concorrendo, assim, para explicar o fenômeno da instabilidade governamental inicialmente referido. / The main purpose of this work is to investigate the reasons of the ministerial instability in the Second Empire (1840-1889) as well as the role played in the production of this phenomenon by the relations between the Government and the House of Representatives. From the studies of all episodes of cabinet replacements during the historical period mentioned, a classification of the reasons that motivated its withdrawals were elaborated, focusing on the eventual political action of the Crown and the House of Representatives in these events. To the contrary of what is believed by conventional literature, which highlights the independent role of the Crown in the substitution of the governments, this text notices that real or potential conflicts between the cabinets and the Legislative Power, in special the House, were the main factors associated with government turnover during the Second Empire. It explores, from there, the hypothesis that the introduction of district electoral rules in the political system of that time, starting from the 1850s, in substitution of the former regime of slates (chapas), changing the incentives which the main imperial political agents were submitted, played a leading role in those conflicts, contributing thus to explain the instability mentioned before.

De onde vem nossas leis? Origem e conteúdo da legislação em perspectiva comparada / De onde vem nossas leis? Origem e conteúdo da legislação em perspectiva comparada

Ricci, Paolo 19 December 2006 (has links)
Este trabalho é um estudo comparado do impacto do sistema eleitoral e do poder de agenda sobre a produção legislativa sancionada de origem parlamentar in 22 democracias. Investiga-se a hipótese de que sistemas centrados no candidato incentivam os deputados a produzirem iniciativas legislativas paroquiais, isto é, normas que conferem benefícios locais. Alternativamente, considero a hipótese de que os parlamentares são influenciados mais pelas pressões vindas dos grupos organizados, independentemente do grau de personalização que o sistema eleitoral proporciona. Isso significa que, em termos de políticas públicas, prevalecerão normas de tipo distributivo a caráter difuso também em sistemas centrados no candidato. Como alternativa à idéia da conexão eleitoral, será considerada a hipótese de que a produção legislativa è função do tipo de organização dos trabalhos parlamentares. Os dados evidenciam que a tese do voto pessoal não é explicativa. Uma indicação empírica importante é que são os grupos a exercer uma influência significativa sobre a produção legislativa. O trabalho fornece também evidências de que é o tipo de controle da agenda que melhor elucida o formato da produção legislativa dos deputados. / This dissertation is a comparative study on the impact of electoral systems and agenda powers on the approved bills proposed by members of the Congress in 22 democracies. I examine the hypothesis that candidate centered systems bring incentives to MPs to adopt pork barrel politics, i.e. conferring special benefits to narrow constituencies. An alternative hypothesis considers that MPs are much more influenced by organized groups? lobbies, independently of personal vote. According to this perspective, even if the electoral system is candidate- centered, distributive laws that do not to concentrate benefits territorially will be predominant. As opposed to the electoral connection perspective, I consider the hypothesis that legislative results are a product of the legislature organization. Data confirm that the personal vote perspective is not exaustive. A relevant empirical indication is that the major impact on legislative output is provided by groups. This study also argues that procedural agenda control has a significant impact on the legislative output.

As denúncias de compra de votos como estratégia eleitoral. Análise da relação entre denúncias de compra de votos e a dinâmica de competição eleitoral nas eleições municipais de 2012 em São Paulo / Vote buying denunciations as an electoral strategy. Analysis of the relationship between vote buying denunciations and the dynamics of electoral competition in the 2012 municipal elections in São Paulo

Barboza, Danilo Praxedes 26 February 2015 (has links)
presente pesquisa objetiva analisar as motivações estratégicas inerentes às denúncias de compra de votos na dinâmica eleitoral brasileira, a partir da análise das denúncias apresentadas à Justiça Eleitoral nas eleições municipais de 2012 em São Paulo. Para tanto, a dissertação se divide em quatro partes, a saber: (1) discussão sobre o contexto histórico da criação da Lei Contra a corrupção eleitoral (Lei nº 9.840/1999); (2) breve revisão bibliográfica do conceito de compra de votos e análise da literatura sobre o tema no Brasil; (3) análise das características das denúncias de compra de votos apresentadas à Justiça Eleitoral nas eleições municipais paulistas de 2012, com ênfase na caracterização dos atores candidatos e partidos, da prática tipo de benesses oferecidas, outros crimes eleitorais praticados e dos resultados dos processos judiciais; (4) análise das motivações estratégicas inerentes às denúncias de compra de votos, a partir da análise de dados de competição eleitoral local e características socioeconômicas dos municípios. Pretende-se demonstrar na presente pesquisa que a incidência de denúncias de compra de votos na realidade política brasileira está vinculada fortemente à dinâmica da competição eleitoral local, e não necessariamente na real incidência da prática ilícita, se configurando, portanto, como uma ferramenta na disputa eleitoral. / This research aims to analyze the strategic motivations for vote-buying allegations in the Brazilian electoral competition, based on the analysis of denunciations made to the Electoral Court in the 2012 municipal elections of São Paulo, Brazil. Therefore, the dissertation is divided into four parts, namely: (1) discussion of the historical context of the creation of the law \"Against electoral corruption\" (Law nº 9.840/1999); (2) literature review of the concept of vote-buying and analysis of the literature on the subject in Brazil; (3) analysis of the characteristics of vote-buying complaints to the Electoral Court in the São Paulo municipal elections of 2012, with emphasis on characterization of the actors - candidates and parties, practice - kind of handouts offered, other electoral crimes - and results of court proceedings; (4) analysis of the strategic motivations for vote-buying allegations, from the data of local electoral competition and socioeconomic characteristics of the municipalities. The intent is to demonstrate that the incidence of vote-buying allegations in the Brazilian political reality is strongly linked to the dynamics of the local electoral competition, configured so as a tool in the electoral running, and not necessarily linked with the real occurrence of the illicit practice.

Deputados e delegados do poder monárquico: eleições e dinâmica política na província de São Paulo (1840-1850) / Deputies and delegates of the monarchical power: elections and political dynamics in the province of São Paulo (1840-1850)

Munari, Rodrigo Marzano 12 December 2017 (has links)
Esta dissertação tem por objetivo estudar alguns aspectos das eleições ocorridas, na província de São Paulo, após a promulgação das instruções eleitorais de 1842 e da lei de 19 de agosto de 1846. O principal ponto abordado é a atuação dos presidentes de província em tais eleições, uma vez que, consoante boa parte da historiografia, a essas autoridades se deveria o êxito alcançado pelo governo nos pleitos fenômeno que, por sua vez, corroboraria a ideia de falseamento do regime representativo no Império. Os regulamentos de 1842 e 1846 diferem quanto à forma e ao conteúdo em que foram concebidos. Os efeitos práticos dessas alterações normativas foram, amiúde, desconsiderados pelos historiadores, haja vista que os ministérios não deixariam de vencer os pleitos; e os presidentes de província, independentemente de tais reformas, tinham poderes suficientes para fazer eleições favoráveis ao gabinete no poder destacando-se o poder de barganha ofertado pela lei de 3 de dezembro de 1841, com suas nomeações para diversos cargos do aparelho judiciário nas províncias. Este trabalho procura mostrar que, a despeito da vitória final do governo, as mudanças das leis não foram inócuas, dado que a prática eleitoral foi de fato transformada, na província de São Paulo, por aqueles regulamentos; cumprindo observar que, nessa transposição das leis à prática, papel de relevo tiveram os ministérios e os presidentes provinciais, aos quais competia solucionar dúvidas das autoridades locais sobre questões que aparecessem por ocasião dos pleitos. Desvela-se, desse modo, um cenário eleitoral mais complexo, no qual as leis não eram letras mortas e os presidentes não faziam eleições calcando aos pés a legislação em vigor. Por fim, analisa-se o significado da vitória do governo nessas duas eleições que tiveram lugar em São Paulo, na década de 1840. Tem-se em mente que, ao contrário de simples imposição dos candidatos ministeriais, esse triunfo foi a consagração dos candidatos escolhidos pelos partidos provinciais que estivessem em consonância, em determinado momento, com o partido político dominante no centro do Império. / This research aims to study some aspects of the elections that took place, in province of São Paulo, after promulgation of the electoral instructions of 1842 and the law of August 19, 1846. The main point analyzed is the performance of the provincial presidents in these elections, considering that, according to much of the historiography, these authorities were primarily responsible for the success achieved by government in elections - a phenomenon that, in turn, would corroborate the idea of a distortion of the representative system in Empire. The regulations of 1842 and 1846 differ in the form and content in which they were designed. Historians often disregarded the practical effects of these normative changes, because ministries would not fail to win elections. Moreover, provincial presidents, regardless of such reforms, had sufficient powers to hold elections favorable to the ruling cabinet - among other things, the bargaining power offered by the law of December 3, 1841, with their nominations for several positions in the provinces. This work tries to show that, in spite of the final victory of the government, the changes of the laws were not innocuous, since the electoral practice was in fact transformed, in São Paulo, by those regulations. Observing that, in this transposition of laws to practice, the ministries and provincial presidents played a prominent role, solving doubts of the local authorities on questions that arose at the time of the elections. In this way, a more complex electoral scenario is unveiled, in which the laws were not mere \"dead letters\". Finally, we analyze the meaning of the victory of the government in these two elections that took place in São Paulo in the 1840s. We have in mind that, contrary to the mere imposition of ministerial candidates, this triumph was the consecration of the candidates chosen by the provincial parties that were in line, at a given moment, with the dominant political party in the center of the Empire.

L’élection présidentielle comme levier de pérennisation dans le système élitaire au Cameroun de 1992 à 2011 / Presidential elections as a lever of sustainability in the elitist system in Cameroon from 1992 to 2011

Mimesse Me Fame, Marie 04 April 2017 (has links)
Notre travail se propose d’analyser selon quelles modalités se mettent en place et évoluent les intégrations élitaires de type thermidorien qui sont à l’oeuvre au Cameroun de 1992 à 2011, au travers des transactions liées à la candidature aux élections présidentielles.En décembre 1990, après 4 décennies d’un régime présidentiel monolithique, des forces d’opposition émergent à l’occasion de la libéralisation de la vie politique, dans l’optique de renverser le pouvoir en place, dans une logique révolutionnaire. Au bout de deux décennies de pluralisme, à défaut d’avoir remplacé le pouvoir en place, certains des membres de la fronde contre le pouvoir sont intégrés dans les instances gouvernementales du régime, occasionnant une révolution thermidorienne. Nous passons en revue les différents éléments (systémiques et conjoncturels) facilitateurs de l’intégration élitaire, au sortir d’une période autoritaire et qui favorisent les intégrations des anciens révolutionnaires dans le centre du pouvoir. Les conditions analysées sont les suivantes en ce qui concerne les éléments systémiques : une structuration élitaire centralisée qui freine la mise en place d’un polycentre, une opposition autonome, un recrutement élitaire décentralisé, le mésocratisme comme coutume du champ politique. Les éléments conjoncturels qui initient l’intégration élitaire postautoritaire, et que nous analysons, sont les suivants : la possession par les élites émergeantes des caractéristiques de la nouvelle donne du jeu politique (référentiels démocratiques), le défaut de cette nouvelle caractéristique chez les élites en position dans le pouvoir central, la capacité chez les élites intermédiaires d’exercer une pression sur le centre du pouvoir, afin de modifier l’agenda politique, et enfin, la possibilité pour les élites en place de mettre à profit les leviers institutionnels dont ils disposent pour rassembler les différentes factions en présence / Our work aims at studying how the thermidorian-type elite integrations witnessed in Cameroon from 1992 to 2011 are set up and evolve, based on transactions linked to the candidacy for presidential elections. In december 1990, after 4 decades of one-party presidential system, opposition forces emerged thanks to the liberalisation of political life in december 1990, with the aim of toppling the powers that be, through a revolutionary move. After two decades of pluralism, some members of the opposition who have not succeeded to replace the people in power are integrated into public bodies of the regime, thus causing a thermidorian revolution. We are reviewing the various elements (system andsituational) facilitating elite integration at the end of an authoritarian period and which foster the integration of former revolutionaries into the centre of power. The following conditions are reviewed, including: a centralised elite structure which hinders the setting up of a polycentre for an independent opposition, a decentralised elite recruitment, mesocratism as a practice in the political field. Situational elements which promote the integration of post-authoritarian elite and that we are analysing are the following :emerging elite possess the characteristics of the new order of political game (democraticreferences), elite in the central power lack of this new characteristics, intermediary elite are able to mount pressure on the central power to change the political agenda, and lastly, the elite in power can use institutional levers at their disposal to bring the various existing factions together

Polícia Militante: deputados policiais militares na Assembleia Legislativa do Estado de São Paulo (1999-2011) / Militant Police: military policemen deputies of the House of Representatives of the State of São Paulo (1999-2011)

Cymrot, Danilo 08 April 2015 (has links)
Utilizada para reprimir movimentos sociais e manter a ordem, a polícia é tradicionalmente identificada com os interesses da direita. No Brasil, a criação da Polícia Militar no contexto político da ditadura civil-militar instaurada no país em 1964 facilita essa associação. No entanto, se por um lado policiais militares tendem a se aliar politicamente a setores da população que se opõem a instrumentos de responsabilização da polícia, encarados como fatores que dificultam o trabalho policial, por outro, são servidores públicos que reivindicam melhores condições de trabalho, o que abre a possibilidade para que se aproximem da esquerda ou pelo menos se distanciem da direita neoliberal. Alguns dos candidatos a deputado estadual mais votados em São Paulo são oriundos da Polícia Militar. O presente trabalho almeja investigar se os deputados da Assembleia Legislativa do Estado de São Paulo oriundos da Polícia Militar, das 14ª, 15ª e 16ª legislaturas (1999-2011), são responsivos ao eleitorado de direita; se adotam pontos de vista homogêneos sobre diversos temas (militarização da polícia, corrupção policial, missão da Polícia Militar, policiamento comunitário, ditadura, política criminal, movimentos sociais etc.); e como exercem a defesa dos interesses da Polícia Militar, uma corporação marcada por inúmeros conflitos internos, principalmente entre praças e oficiais. Para tanto, pesquisou-se em que zonas eleitorais esses deputados são proporcionalmente mais votados; problematizou-se a associação entre sensação de insegurança, defesa de bandeiras repressivas, percepção da corrupção e o voto em candidatos e partidos de direita; identificaram-se seus projetos de lei; compararam-se suas votações em plenário na 16ª legislatura (2007-2011); analisaram-se seus discursos na tribuna da ALESP, que foram contrastados com pesquisas de opinião pública, pesquisas de opinião de policiais militares e literatura sobre subculturas policiais. Da mesma forma, o trabalho discute as possíveis razões que levam policiais militares a se candidatarem a uma vaga no Poder Legislativo estadual. / The police are used to repress social movements and to keep the order, and are traditionally identified with the right wing interests. In Brazil, the Military Police was created within the political context of the civil/military dictatorship established in 1964 and eases such association; however, if on one hand military policemen tend to politically ally themselves with the population sectors contrary to instruments that hold the police liable, faced as factors making police work more difficult, on the other hand, military policemen are public servants claiming for better work conditions, and there is the possibility of they getting nearer to the left wing, or at least distancing themselves from the neoliberal right wing. Some candidates for deputies of the House of São Paulo State Legislative derive from the Military Police. The aim of this work is to investigate whether the deputies of the House of Representatives of the State of São Paulo from the Military Police, in the 14th, 15th and 16th legislatures (1999-2011), are responsive to the right wing electors, if they adopt similar viewpoints on several themes (police militarization, police corruption, Military Polices mission, community policing, dictatorship, criminal policy, social movements, etc.), and how they defend the Military Polices interests, a corporation marked by uncountable internal conflicts, mainly among police force and officers. For such purpose, the following issues were addressed: research about in which electoral zones those deputies are proportionally more voted; where one can see the connection among feeling of insecurity, defense of repressive flags, perception of corruption and voting in right wing candidates and parties; identification of their bills of law; their votes in plenary sessions in the 16th legislature (2007-2011) are compared; their speeches at ALESPs tribune are analyzed and contrasted with public opinion polls, opinion polls with military policemen and the literature on police subcultures. Likewise, the work discusses the possible reasons for military policemen running for an office in the State Legislative.

Migração partidária na Câmara dos Deputados / Migration of party in the representatives house

Freitas, Andréa Marcondes de 05 February 2009 (has links)
Este trabalho procura analisar o fenômeno das trocas de legenda no Brasil, com um enfoque diferente do que tradicionalmente se aplica. Ao invés de buscar as ambições do migrante, procurei entender as trocas de legenda no agregado, buscando apreender como os atores coletivos, no caso os partidos políticos, utilizam as trocas de legenda para aumentar seu poder na arena parlamentar e na arena eleitoral. Não pretendo com isto afirmar que os parlamentares não busquem aumentar suas chances de sucesso quando trocam de partido, ao contrário, o que pretendo é mostrar que, se ocorre migração partidária, é porque os deputados percebem a importância dos partidos para seus objetivos. Mais do que isso, o que se pretende é mostrar que os partidos políticos não são vítimas de parlamentares ultra-individualistas, estes atuam no processo e estimulam a migração partidária na busca por aumentar seus recursos. E que aliciam parlamentares para aumentar seu acesso a cargos no legislativo e para aumentar seus votos em regiões onde não eram bem votados. / In this work we present an analysis of the party switching phenomenon in Brazil. We try to understand how political parties use the switching party strategy to increase their resources in both parliamentary and electoral arenas. The focus of this work is to explain the role played by the switching parties strategy in the aggregated level without, however, losing sight of the costs and benefits of each switch for individual representatives. It is not my intention to affirm that the parliamentarians do not look to increase his chances of success when they move from one party to another; what I intend to show is that, if party migration occurs, it is because deputies realize the importance of the parties to his own objectives. More than that, which is claimed, is to show that the political parties are not victims of ultra-individualist parliamentarian, they act in the process and stimulate the switching party to increasing his resources.

Representação política e accountability eleitoral: genealogia e crítica / Political representation and electoral accountability: genealogy and critique

Castro, Pedro Ernesto Vicente de 23 February 2018 (has links)
Essa dissertação tem dois objetivos. O primeiro é fazer uma genealogia da mais popular concepção de representação na ciência política: a do accountability eleitoral. A teoria do accountability eleitoral é um produto da reflexão teórica e normativa da ciência política de meados do século XX em diante, especialmente de duas literaturas. Uma é a de congruência ou responsividade, que adota a congruência entre as preferências por políticas ou a ideologia do representante e aquelas do representado como ideal normativo. A outra é a do voto retrospectivo, que encontra sua versão mais sofisticada nos modelos de agência política. Para essa literatura, normativamente atraente é a seleção de representantes competentes, que entreguem bons resultados. Ambas especificam a relação entre eleições e representação: por meio das eleições, o representado consegue fazer o representante lhe entregar o que ele quer. A primeira parte do trabalho reconstrói a trajetória dessas duas literaturas, ressaltando seus impasses. O principal desses impasses envolve a bem documentada desinformação do eleitor: como eleitores desinformados podem controlar seus representantes? O segundo objetivo é avaliar a teoria do accountability eleitoral à luz das evidências empíricas pertinentes. Para tanto, o trabalho investiga as evidências sobre o problema da desinformação do eleitor, e de sua competência em geral. O saldo das evidências recomenda ceticismo a respeito do accountability eleitoral. Diante disso, o que podemos então esperar da representação política? O trabalho sugere que um caminho é inverter a perspectiva do accountability eleitoral e enxergar a representação política como uma relação em que o representante é quem mobiliza, de cima para baixo, o representado. O apoio político do representado é um recurso que o representante tenta angariar para perseguir seus próprios objetivos políticos. Esse pode ser um caminho para reconciliar a teoria da representação com o fenômeno da liderança política. / This thesis has two goals. The first one is to put together a genealogy of the most popular conception of representation in political science: that of electoral accountability. The theory of electoral accountability is a product of theoretical and normative reflection of political science from mid-20th century on, and especially of two different literatures. One is the literature on policy congruence or policy responsiveness, which takes congruence between the representatives and the constituents policy preferences or ideology as a normative ideal. The other one is the retrospective voting literature, which finds its most sophisticated version in political agency models. For this literature, what is normatively appealing is the selection of competent representatives, who are able to deliver good results. Both literatures specify the connection between elections and representation: through elections, constituents can get representatives to deliver what they want. The first part of this work retells these literatures trajectories, point out their impasses. The main one regards voters well documented lack of information: how can uninformed voters control their representatives? This works second aim is to assess the theory of electoral accountability in light of the pertinent empirical evidence. In order to do so, the work investigates the evidence on the problem of voters lack of information and voter competence in general. The balance of the evidence suggests skepticism towards electoral accountability. Given this, what can we expect from political representation? The thesis suggests that a possible path is to reverse the point of view of electoral accountability and see political representation as a top-down relationship in which representatives mobilize constituents. Constituents political support is a resource that representatives try to gather in order to pursue their own political objectives. This can be a way to reconcile the theory of representation with the phenomenon of political leadership.
