Since the Third Wave of democratization research on clientelism has
experienced a revival. The puzzling persistence of clientelism in
new and old democracies inspired researchers to investigate the
micro-foundations and causes of this phenomenon. Though the decline
of clientelistic practices - such as vote buying and patronage - in
democratic contexts has often been predicted, they have proven to
be highly adaptive strategies of electoral mobilization and party
building. This volume seeks to contribute to this new line of
research and develops a theoretical framework to study the
consequences of clientelism for democratic governance. Under
governance we understand "all processes of governing, whether
undertaken by a government, market, or network, whether over a
family, tribe, formal or informal organization, or territory, and
whether through laws, norms, power or language".
