| Summary: | This paper is intended to conduct an exploratory analysis on the organization of local power, with a main focus on the relations among political parties and city councilors. To that end, in first place, this paper identifies demographic, social, economic and political characteristics of the city councilors elected in Sao Paulo. Second, we performed an in-depth review on the relations among councilors and political parties by analyzing forms of intraparty participation, grassroots networks and partnership-making. Third, we analyzed the perception of councilors from Sao Paulo with regards to the local force of the parties, employing a survey prepared by the project Organization and functioning of representative politics in the state of Sao Paulo. The main conclusion is that the more a given party contributes to the election of councilors the more prone it is to have perceptions concerning relations of loyalty, thus contributing to the survival of the party in the partisan sub-system. |
