Resumen
Descripción
Em um período recente o debate sobre a democracia
tem sido focado na avaliação de sua qualidade.
Um dos aspectos envolvidos é o referente
aos critérios de avaliação, sendo defendido por
diversos autores a necessidade de considerar variáveis
relativas à cultura política. Este trabalho
propõe, com base na teoria da cultura política, a
inclusão entre as variáveis de avaliação da qualidade
da democracia as referentes ao apoio e a
satisfação com a democracia, buscando avaliar,
utilizando dados do Latinobarômetro de 1996 a
2009, de que maneira os processos de eleição
presidencial na América Latina se constituem ou
não em uma variável independente que impacta
o apoio aos regimes e governos, influindo sobre
a estabilidade democrática e tornando-se um fator
de diferenciação de sua qualidade.
In recent years the debate about democracy has focused in evaluating its quality. One of the issues is that of criteria of evaluation, being needed, according some authors, to take in account cultural variables. This paper proposes, based in political culture theory, to include support and satisfaction with democracy as variables to evaluate democracy, using data from Latinobarometer from 1996 to 2009 to find how presidential elections in Latin America could or not be an independent variable that impacts support for regimes and governments, having influence on democratic stability and being a factor for difference in its quality
