Publication Type: Proceeding Abstract: This study will explore linkages between involvement in the partisan and electoral arena 1For a history of the linkages between union movements and party systems in much of Latin America see Collier and Collier (2002); for analysis of the connections between the Catholic church and party systems, see Mainwaring and Scully (2003). 2 and participation in the associational arena from various perspectives. Bivariate measures of what might be called shared-member linkage provide an initial overview of connections between the associational and electoral arenas. Then, multivariate analysis of the existence of party identi¯cation, as well as of the speci¯c party with which individuals identify, provides an explicit comparison of the relevance of linkages between party politics and associational life, in contrast with the importance of variables derived from other theoretical perspectives on party identi¯cation. Finally, a cohort analysis tests the extent to which respondents who have come of age recently di®er in terms of linkages between party identi¯cation and associational involvement from earlier groups. In each of these sections, special attention will be paid to the relevance of party-union linkages, the importance of church involvement for partisanship, and the role of other associational activity in predicting party involvement. In almost every case, there is evidence of a continued link between labor union involve- ment and partisanship. Church involvement and associational activity are also important, although their relative signi¯cance varies from analysis to analysis and from country to country. However, there are also signs that these linkages may be in some danger of future weakening: the most recent age cohorts, who have entered politics after the advent of the neoliberal reform era, show much weaker linkages than older cohorts; and all cohorts show weak connections between associational involvement and the direction of partisanship.
