El voto es nuestro. Cómo los ciudadanos mexicanos perciben el clientelismo electoral

Abstract

THE ARTICLE EXAMINES THE "MORAL ECONOMY" OF ELECTORAL CLIENTELISM -THE EXCHANGE OF VOTES FOR GOODS- ON THE BASIS OF QUALITATIVE INTERVIEWS CONDUCTED IN LATE 2000 IN RURAL MEXICO. CONTRARY TO COMMON ASSUMPTIONS, IT FINDS THAT RESPONDENTS TEND TO REJECT CLIENTELIST PRACTICES IN THE NAME OF INDIVIDUAL AUTONOMY.
