Political Participation
Abstract
Beginning with the broad literature on the causes of political participation, this chapter analyzes the determinants of the political involvement of Brazilians in different modalities of action. We begin with a discussion of the concept of participation and the classification proposals utilized in recent literature. In the second section, we examine Brazilian electoral participation, especially the expansion of the suffrage and indicators of voter turnout, abstention, and blank and null votes. In the third section, we analyze the participation of Brazilians in various non-electoral modalities. We conclude with perspectives for future research on participation.

The mass protests of recent years indicate politics is increasingly salient to Brazilians, who had previously shown low and decreasing levels of engagement with political activities.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
