- W347883918 abstract "Central America, thanks to its historical legacies and geographical location, faces important challenges in the twenty-first century, from resolving historical problems of inequality and economic growth to responding to the resurgence of violence. As elected officials address these issues, a key question is the extent to which citizens’ preferences are also the preferences of their representatives. That is, what is the level of congruence between citizens and representatives? Using data from the Parliamentary Elites of Latin America and Americas Barometer surveys, the paper analysis congruence between citizens and representatives. It finds considerable levels of ideological congruence in the region, but also surprising patterns. There are lower levels of congruence in unexpected countries, Costa Rica with its high quality of democracy and relatively stable party system, than in countries in Guatemala, with its weakly institutionalized party system and weaker quality of democracy. Over time there are also abrupt changes, prompting the question of what drives congruence if institutions don’t change. The paper explores these surprising patterns, proposing an explanation for congruence that can travel beyond Central America." @default.
