MILLAN, Henio. Democracy and redistribution: Adam Przeworski and the political inequality. Revista Col. San Luis [online]. 2018, vol.8, n.17, pp.137-162. ISSN 2007-8846. https://doi.org/10.21696/rcsl8172018814.
The objective of this article is to critically review Przeworski’s recent contributions regarding economic inequality, political inequality and redistribution. An analytical methodology of the distributive rate of the average voter was followed when the distribution of political influence is determined by economic inequality. One of the limitations of the analysis is that the Przeworski model is an adequate approximation, but it needs to be reinforced with an alternate invigoration of the decisive voter. Likewise, it was not possible to contrast this model with empirical evidence for lack of space to expose and criticize Przeworski’s basic ideas. The paper is valuable because it represents a step forward in the contributions of Przeworski about the problem of the relationship between political inequality and social inequality. Therefore, it is determined that it is necessary to adjust the model in three aspects: the decisive agent is unnecessary, the redistributive rate is ambiguous, and the transmission mechanism is weak.
