MARTINEZ-HERNANDEZ, Aldo Adrián; MIRANDA OLIVARES, Nicolás; SENDRA, Mariana y OLUCHA SANCHEZ, Francisco. IDEOLOGICAL CONGRUENCE IN LATIN AMERICA. A PROPOSAL FOR MEASURING THREE LEVELS OF POLITICAL REPRESENTATION: ELITES, CITIZENS, AND ELECTORAL PROGRAMS. anal.polit. [online]. 2022, vol.35, n.104, pp.63-90. Epub 30-Nov-2022. ISSN 0121-4705. https://doi.org/10.15446/anpol.v35n104.105165.
The study of political congruence makes it possible to determine to what extent the positions of representatives reflect citizen preferences; it is, therefore, an indication of political representation and the state of democracy. This work aims to determine the degree of ideological congruence in Latin America from an integral perspective: citizens, legislators, and government programs, by implementing a multilevel strategy that places political parties as the unit of analysis. The results provide a holistic and descriptive observation of the ideological reality of the region, highlighting the variety of ties and ideological trajectories of Latin American party systems, which demonstrate low levels of congruence during the last decade.
