学者们认为,多党选举对群众对政治支持的评价有着深刻而直接的影响。然而,不太清楚的是,选举的影响是短暂的还是持久的。在民主倒退的时代,调查选举对群众对政治制度的看法的动态影响,对巩固民主的民众基础有着深远的影响。本文探讨了选举周期中的公民对民主的满意度(社会发展)-政治支持的一个重要方面-在多党政权。首先,我们认为,接近选举增强了社会福利署,因为运动和选举包括几个过程,减少成本和增加公民参与政治制度的好处。这导致了市民对选举的接近程度与社署之间的钟形关系。第二,我们认为社署的选举周期应视乎选举的质素及市民的赢家/败身份而有所不同。我们使用1999年至2015年间34个多党政权的Afrobarometer数据来研究这些假设,发现令人信服的支持。在接近选举的受访者中,社署的比例较高,而社署的选举周期在获胜者和低质量选举中更为突出。
Scholars have argued that multiparty elections have a profound and immediate influence on mass evaluations of political support. However, what is less clear is whether the effects of elections are short lived or long lasting. Investigating dynamic effects of elections on mass perceptions of political regimes has profound implications on popular foundations of democratic consolidation in an era of democratic backsliding. This article examines electoral cycles in citizens' satisfaction with democracy (SWD)—an important dimension of political support—in multiparty regimes. First, we argue that proximity to elections enhances SWD because campaigns and elections include several processes thatreduce the costsandincrease the benefitsof citizen engagement with the political system. This results in a bell‐shaped relationship between citizens' proximity to elections and SWD. Second, we contend that electoral cycles in SWD should vary by the quality of elections and citizens' winner/loser status. We examine these hypotheses using Afrobarometer data in 34 multiparty regimes between 1999 and 2015 finding compelling support. SWD is higher among respondents surveyed closer to elections, while electoral cycles in SWD are more prominent among winners and around low‐quality elections.
