Suele considerarse que la volatilidad electoral es principalmente un síntoma negativo de la democracia.

A partir de distintos modelos estadísticos, se concluye que bajos niveles de volatilidad electoral están asociados con la continuidad del partido de gobierno, mientras que altos niveles de volatilidad no necesariamente corresponden a la alternancia del partido de gobierno.... view less

Based on various statistical models, the conclusion is that low levels of electoral volatility are associated with the continuity of the governing party, while high levels of volatility do not necessarily correspond to the alternation of the ruling party.... view less
