Abstract

Chapter 4 offers a theoretical explanation for why we should expect to see constituency service in patronage democracies, despite existing expectations to the contrary. It discusses in greater detail the book’s argument for why constituency service constitutes a key element of distributive politics, alongside forms of locally brokered clientelism and contingent allocation of group-oriented goods. The chapter elaborates the sources of demand for, and supply of, constituency service in a patronage democracy. It then considers the limitations of more widely studied forms of distributive politics and outlines the ways in which constituency service offers a compelling alternative to politicians for pursuing their desired electoral ends. This discussion suggests a number of empirical implications, laid out in detail at the end of the chapter, which guide the analyses in subsequent chapters.
客户还是选民?
第4章提供了一个理论解释,为什么我们应该期待在赞助民主国家看到选区服务,尽管现有的预期相反。它更详细地讨论了本书的论点,即为什么选区服务构成了分配政治的关键要素,以及地方中介的庇护主义形式和群体导向商品的偶然分配。本章详细阐述了惠顾民主制中选民服务的需求和供给来源。然后,它考虑了更广泛研究的分配政治形式的局限性,并概述了选民服务为政治家追求他们期望的选举目标提供了一种令人信服的选择的方式。这一讨论提出了一些实证意义,在本章末尾详细列出,指导后续章节的分析。
