Abstract

ABSTRACT Dense networks are supposed to allow political machines to solve the “commitment problem” that is typical for electoral mobilization. Highlighting the effect of dense networks, we study the features of local communities that facilitate their emergence: countryside, small size of a settlement, and “segregated” type of ethnic groups’ localization in relation to each other. On the ground of the 2016 Duma elections, an original dataset based on local-level data and GIS techniques, we examine these attributes of local units in the combination with ethnic structure, and find moderator-type effects that indirectly prove the importance of dense networks in electoral mobilization.

密集网络、少数民族与当代俄罗斯的选举动员

密集的网络被认为允许政治机器解决“承诺问题”，这是典型的选举动员。在强调密集网络效应的基础上，我们研究了促进其出现的地方社区特征:农村、小规模定居点和“隔离”类型的族群相互之间的本地化。在2016年杜马选举的基础上，我们基于地方层面数据和GIS技术的原始数据集，结合民族结构研究了地方单位的这些属性，并发现了间接证明密集网络在选举动员中的重要性的调节型效应。
