Benefits by Luck
Lotteries could be a just and cost-effective procedure to distribute government benefits in contexts of oversubscription, with the added benefit of allowing assessments of the impact of government programs. However, little is known about whether there is public support for employing lotteries in this context. We examine support for a lottery that selects recipients of new government-built housing units in Brazil and find that neither lotteries pa…
Promoting Reproducibility and Replicability in Political Science
This article reviews and summarizes current reproduction and replication practices in political science. We first provide definitions for reproducibility and replicability. We then review data availability policies for 28 leading political science journals and present the results from a survey of editors about their willingness to publish comments and replications. We discuss new initiatives that seek to promote and generate high-quality reproduc…
Inoculation Reduces Misinformation
Misinformation is widely seen as a threat to democracy that should be promptly addressed by scholars, journalists, and policymakers. However, some of the debated solutions are either controversial (internet platform regulation) or may be difficult and costly to implement in many settings (fact-checking corrections). This study investigates the effectiveness of preemptive interventions, a type of solution that has received considerably less attent…
The Timing of Public Policies
Why do politicians cluster the distribution of benefits in the run‐up to elections? I suggest that credit claiming is an explanation for political budget cycles. Brazilian rules banning credit claiming before elections while allowing the distribution of benefits until Election Day provides an opportunity to differentiate between distribution and credit claiming combined with distribution as an engine that reinforces political budget cycles. Evide…
What You See and What You Get
We investigated both the direct and indirect political dividends of public policies by examiningMinha Casa,Minha Vida, a housing programme in Brazil that selects its beneficiaries by lottery. We surveyed the lottery participants and found that the winners were not more likely to support the incumbent politicians. Non-beneficiaries, a much larger group, were aware of the programme and thought well of it while the beneficiaries' responses to the pr…
Making the Bourgeoisie? Values, Voice, and State-Provided Home Ownership
What are the effects of state-provided home ownership on political values and voice? Home ownership is expected to lead to more conservative attitudes and more political engagement. At the same time, the receipt of government benefits should increase claim making and support for redistribution. We employ two original surveys of 3,000 participants of lotteries used to select beneficiaries for the Minha Casa, Minha Vida housing program in Rio de Ja…
Fake News, Fact Checking, and Partisanship
Studies about fake news in developed democracies suggest that fact checking reduces misinformation. They also identify partisan-motivated reasoning as the driving force behind beliefs in false information and the resistance to corrections. But how effective are corrections in developing democracies? Does the dominant explanation for misinformation hold in settings with different partisan configurations? Drawing on a survey experiment during the 2…
Race, Resources, and Representation
Bypassing the Enemy
How do incumbents prevent the opposition from claiming credit for government programs? The received scholarly wisdom is that central government authorities favor copartisans in lower tiers of government to reward allies and punish opponents. Yet this depiction ignores the range of strategies available to incumbents at the center. I argue that another effective strategy is to channel resources through nonstate organizations, thus bypassing the opp…
Race, Resources, and Representation
What explains the persistence of racial or ethnic inequalities in descriptive representation in the absence of strongly politicized racial or ethnic cleavages? This article uses new data to demonstrate a substantial racial gap between voters and politicians in Brazil. The authors show that this disparity is not plausibly due to racial preferences in the electorate as a whole, for instance, deference toward white candidates or discrimination again…
Bypassing the Enemy
Raça e comportamento político
A discussão sobre raça na política brasileira é mote entre cientistas sociais de diversas perspectivas: seja pelo seu papel na formação do Estado nacional, nos movimentos sociais ou ainda nas políticas públicas voltadas a grupos raciais. Utilizando a abordagem centrada em recursos, argumenta-se que o pertencimento a um grupo racial não afeta de forma substantiva a propensão a atuar politicamente em Belo Horizonte, ao passo que fatores socioeconôm…
Waves of Change Within Civil Society in Latin America
For the past half a century, Latin American scholars have been pointing toward the emergence of new social actors as agents of social and political democratization. The first wave of actors was characterized by the emergence of novel agents-mainly, new popular movements-of social transformation. At first, the second wave, epitomized by nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), was celebrated as the upsurge of a new civil society, but later on, it was…
Race, Resources, and Political Participation in a Brazilian City
Does race influence political behavior in Brazil? Using data from Belo Horizonte, Brazil, we explore whether an individual's propensity to take part in a political association is affected by race, independent of socioeconomic position and of the availability of resources derived from this position. We found that white individuals participate more in political associations than do black individuals; however, after taking into account the differenc…
