Abstract

Este estudo descreve as implicações eleitorais da polarização espacial na Polônia, na República Tcheca e no leste da Alemanha. Empiricamente, o estudo destaca o comportamento eleitoral dos residentes de determinados territórios como exemplos de regiões desfavorecidas nesses três países, além das condições que moldam esse comportamento. Exploramos se essas implicações podem ser explicadas pelo argumento das preferências populistas em áreas periféricas. Para a análise, utilizamos os resultados das três últimas eleições para os parlamentos da Polônia, da República Tcheca e da Alemanha. Em cada país, selecionamos duas unidades territoriais representando áreas menos desenvolvidas e as contrastamos com uma área socioeconomicamente privilegiada, além dos resultados nacionais. Na Alemanha e na República Tcheca, o apoio a partidos populistas é bem acima da média nas regiões periféricas estudadas e baixo nos locais que se desenvolvem de forma dinâmica. No entanto, não há uma única força política que canalize o descontentamento dos eleitores dessas áreas mais atrasadas. Dependendo das condições culturais e socioeconômicas predominantes, essas forças podem ser mais à direita, mais à esquerda ou até mesmo mais centristas. Na Polônia, o apoio a partidos claramente populistas em regiões desfavorecidas atinge níveis semelhantes aos da comunidade mais rica. As diferenças políticas são mais visíveis no eixo conservadorismo/liberalismo.
