Instituciones Políticas, Política Subnacional, Democracia, Elecciones, Confianza Política, América LatinaResumen
En el estudio de la confianza en las instituciones políticas muchas veces se da por sentado que las personas que viven en un mismo país están expuestas a un grado similar de calidad institucional en todo el territorio nacional. Este artículo argumenta, en cambio, que las diferencias en el desempeño institucional en el plano subnacional condicionan la confianza ciudadana en las instituciones del régimen. Este argumento se somete a prueba mediante un análisis de la confianza en las elecciones en quince democracias latinoamericanas. El análisis muestra que la uniformidad subnacional de la democracia y la exposición individual a la presencia territorial del Estado se asocian positivamente con la confianza electoral. El análisis revela, asimismo, que la confianza en las elecciones depende de la interacción entre la uniformidad subnacional de la democracia y la experiencia individual con alcance territorial del Estado. Los hallazgos sugieren que las disparidades institucionales al interior de los países desempeñan un papel clave en la formación de la confianza política.
