- Dec 54:00 PMWork-in-Progress Seminar: "Personalism and Affective Polarization in Latin America"Kellogg Work-in-Progress seminars are designed to generate in-depth discussion of new scholarly work. For the pre-circulated paper and to attend, register here. Juan Andrés MoraesKellogg Visiting FellowProfessor of Political Science, Universidad de la República, Uruguay Affective polarization is a set of hostile attitudes towards opposing collective identities, which requires vibrant political parties. But what happens when partisan institutions are weak? In Latin America, for example, scholars have extensively documented that parties and party systems tend to have lower levels of institutionalization, brand dilution, and are often used by ambitious politicians as mere electoral vehicles. This research explores the role of personalism as a cause of affective polarization in Latin America, offering an account of such behavior in a context of electoral instability which is a key element of party competition in the region.
