Abstract

This article argues that the legitimacy of the political system is currently at its lowest point since the return to democracy. Presidential approval ratings dipped to a record low in 2016. The year also saw the highest levels of electoral absenteeism and distrust in the three branches of government, and the lowest levels of identification with political parties. This low legitimacy of the political system can be attributed to cyclical —governmental mismanagement and corruption scandals— and underlying causes —interpersonal mistrust, detachment from the political activity and insulated elites—. If these trends continue, we may witness a transformation of the party system, the emergence of populist movements and leaders, and the erosion of the quality of Chilean democracy.

智利2016:民主合法性的最低点?

本文认为，政治制度的合法性目前处于回归民主以来的最低点。总统支持率在2016年跌至历史最低点。这一年，选举缺席率和对政府三个部门的不信任程度也达到最高水平，对政党的认同程度也达到最低水平。这种政治体系的低合法性可以归因于周期性的政府管理不善和腐败丑闻，以及潜在的原因——人际不信任、脱离政治活动和孤立的精英。如果这些趋势继续下去，我们可能会看到政党制度的转变，民粹主义运动和领导人的出现，以及智利民主质量的侵蚀。
