The Race After the Race
Are Afrodescendant candidates more likely than white candidates to retire following electoral defeat? Numerous studies examine the emergence and electoral success of racial minority candidates, but we know remarkably little about how they respond to electoral defeat. There is reason to suspect that defeated racial minority candidates are less likely than defeated white candidates to run again because they are treated differently by political elit…
Who Donates? Gender and Campaign Contributions in Brazil
Money is an important determinant of electoral success. In Latin America, however, women candidates routinely raise less money than men. This article traces the gender resource gap to the donor class. Using original data on the identities of nearly 465,000 donors, we find that women are underrepresented among donors, contribute smaller sums of money than men, and donate primarily to male candidates. Our analysis shows that incumbency narrows the …
Electoral Role Models
Party elites and beauty biases
To what extent does physical attractiveness affect the placement of candidates on party lists in proportional representation systems? Studies show that good-looking politicians fare better electorally than their less attractive peers. Research suggests that this is because voters use physical appearance as a heuristic. In proportional list systems, however, who wins office is conditional on where party leaders place them on the party list. In thi…
The electoral consequences of racial fluidity
Electoral colorism
Race and Resources in Brazilian Mayoral Elections
Elected officials routinely do not reflect the racial diversity of the citizenry. In Latin America, these descriptive gaps are particularly pronounced. A growing number of studies investigate the causes of racial disparities in representation, however, extant research largely focuses on national assemblies. In this paper, I extend this well-trod line of research to an understudied context, local elections. Using a dataset that covers mayoral elec…
Political parties and campaign resource allocation
Political parties shape electoral outcomes by determining who stands for election and what campaign resources they have at their disposal. The introduction of gender quotas have led party leaders to nominate more women candidates, however, those women disproportionately lose. We contend that one of the reasons that women routinely lose is because party elites withhold the campaign resources necessary to mount an effective campaign. In this paper,…
Candidate Advertisements and Afro-Brazilian Political Marginalization
Television is an important political tool in Latin America. In recognition of its ability to shape public opinion and influence political behavior, Brazilian electoral authorities provide political parties with free television airtime in the weeks preceding elections. While Brazil’s publicly financed electoral program levels the playing field between parties, it may contribute to intraparty resource disparities. This article contends that racial …
Race and Campaign Resources
Party elites may hinder racial and ethnic minorities from winning public office by withholding resources. Prior studies have explored the distribution of money, media access, and party-list positions. In Brazil, party elites provide each candidate with a unique identification number. Voters must enter their preferred candidate’s identification number into an electronic voting machine to register their support. In this article, we replicate and ex…

Candidate race and electoral outcomes
Researchers agree that racial disparities exist in Brazil’s political arena, but disagree about the underlying causes. Some scholars suggest that the racial gap between the electorate and those elected in Brazil is explained by differences in candidate entry, social class, and campaign resources while others believe racial discrimination is at play. In this paper, I test these competing explanations for Afro-Brazilian underrepresentation using da…

The changes of a position of body centre of mass (bcm) were analysed on 198 Wrocław school children (115 boys and 83 girls). The aim of this study was twofold: first — to establish the characteristics of ,,a growth curve” of bcm during the considered period of ontogeny; second — to check the differences caused by the sexual dimorphism as well as the relations between changes of bcm height and individual adolescence rate. The girls were measured d…
