摘要
我们研究了意大利民主党(Partito democratico, PD)及其创始政党左翼民主党(Democratici di sinista, DS)和雏菊党(La Margherita, DL)在过去15年(2004-2019)中的中层生活。我们关于国家代表的原始数据来自于在8个国家党代表大会上收集的2373份问卷。受Whiteley和Seyd的低强度和高强度参与概念的启发,我们评估了两种(内部和外部)政党激进主义形式中各种激励类型的相对权重。政党激进主义是理解深刻的文化、组织和选举危机的核心,这场危机将民主党置于十字路口,并导致现任秘书莱塔呼吁召开“新民主党制宪大会”。
The Italian Democratic Party at the Crossroad: Party Activism and the Middle-Level Élite
ABSTRACT We examine the middle-level élite of the Italian Democratic Party (Partito democratico, PD) and its founding parties, Democrats of the Left (Democratici di Sinistra, DS) and The Daisy (La Margherita, DL), over fifteen years (2004–2019). Our original dataset on national delegates comes from 2373 questionnaires collected at eight national party congresses. Inspired by Whiteley and Seyd’s concepts of low and high-intensity participation, we evaluate the relative weight of the various types of incentive in the two (internal and external) forms of party activism. Party activism is central to understanding the profound cultural, organisational, and electoral crisis that has put the PD at a crossroad and has led current secretary Letta to call for a ‘Constituent Congress of the New PD’.
