Abstract
OUTEDA, Celso Cancela and GONZALEZ-CACHEDA, Bruno. Digital mechanisms for participation in CPLP political parties. População e Sociedade [online]. 2021, n.35, pp.113-134. Epub Jan 01, 2022. ISSN 0873-1861. https://doi.org/10.52224/21845263/rev35v1.
This research analyzes and compares the implementation of digital political participation devices among the political parties of the four largest states of the CPLP in terms of population. Based on the influence and incentives of the context of each state, we expect greater adoption of participation tools among the political parties of those states most digitized and developed at the socioeconomic level. For the verification of the starting hypothesis, the information regarding the categories and study variables related to the participation was collected through the websites of the selected political parties through a systematic observation. Statistical analysis of the data obtained did not allow us to confirm the relationship between the level of general digitization, socioeconomic development, and the degree of digitization of political parties. Based on the results obtained, we propose a series of alternative explanations that may be tested in future work.
