Patronage and Presidential Coalition Formation
Effective democratic governance rests on the executive’s ability to forge coalitions that can advance policy and sustain the government against challengers. Scholars have long focused on cabinet appointments to understand how executives build coalitions with their legislative allies. In many democracies, however, cabinet appointments at the ministerial level may only represent the tip of the iceberg. We show that administrative political appointe…
Clash between Science and Politics: The Covid-19 Pandemic in Brazil
This article examines Brazil's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and the implications of the politicization of science. We seek to identify what made possible a relatively successful immunization campaign, notwithstanding the opposition of anti-vaccine forces within the government, and look at how political power struggles informed choices that impaired the national production of vaccines. Finally, we look at negative signs emerging in attitudes …

Watchdogs in Our Midst: How Presidents Monitor Coalitions in Brazil's Multiparty Presidential Regime
When delegating governing tasks to a coalition partner, the president would like to give a minister ample administrative powers to be able to effectively accomplish the political mission. Due to information asymmetries, the president runs the risk that this discretion might be used to pursue policy outcomes that may harm the president's preferences. This trade-off between delegation and control is key to understanding governance strategies the pr…
La crianza y la educación de los hijos en la sociedad actual: Lo Estamos Haciendo Bien
Se analizó el modo en que, hoy en día y en nuestro país, los padres y las madres viven la crianza y la educación de los niños, prestando especial atención a diversas variables relevantes en el comportamiento cívico-moral de éstos. Un total de 3.711 padres y madres de niños de 2 a 12 años de cuatro comunidades autónomas respondieron a un amplio cuestionario, en el cual, como permitieron establecer sucesivos análisis factoriales confirmatorios, sub…
My sexual self, I stifled it’: Sexual subjectivities among young Portuguese women
Recent research has examined young women's sexual subjectivities and desires, yet has neglected the ways women in their twenties account for their sexual selves. The present study focuses on the discourses and discursive constructions available for young Portuguese women when talking about their sexual subjectivity. Data were collected through six focus group discussions with young Portuguese women. The goal was to analyse discursive construction…
Niños en casas-cuna
Con el fin de estudiar el desarrollo de los niños institucionalizados se realiza una investigación en una Casa-Cuna española. Se pretende evaluar el nivel de desarrollo, los factores que los han determinado y qué cambios educativos podrían mejorarlo. Se llegan a varias conclusiones: antes del ingreso los niños ya están gravemente afectados en su nivel de desarrollo, tras el ingreso no cambia esta situación; el lenguaje es la dimensión más afectad…
