Resumo
Este artigo aborda a questão do conteúdo substantivo da competição partidária na América Latina do ponto de vista da coerência intrapartidária. Conceitua-se a coerência partidária como o grau de congruência ideológica e programática dos membros dos partidos. A análise se circunscreve ao grau de coerência da elite parlamentar dos partidos políticos e compreende um total de 25 partidos correspondentes a dez países da região. O trabalho descreve a pauta que segue a coerência nos casos analisados, ensaia uma classificação dos partidos com base nos valores que adquirem nas duas dimensões do conceito (ideológica e programática) e explora o impacto de alguns fatores, tanto relativos ao partido como ao entorno a que pertence, sobre o grau de coerência intrapartidária.
Abstract
This work deals with the substantive content of party competition in Latin America through the analysis of party coherence. Party coherence is conceptualized as the degree of ideological and programmatic congruence among the members of a given party. The analysis is bounded to the parliamentary elite level and it is focused on a total of 25 political parties from 10 countries of the region. This paper describes the pattern followed by coherence for those cases, it offers a ranking of political parties based on the values they adcquire regarding both dimensions of the concept (ideological and programmatic), and it explores the impact of some fators, related both to the party and to its environment, on the degree of party coherence.
Key words: party coherence, political parties, parliamentary elites, Latin America.
