AbstractThis note addresses questions relating to the level of women's political activity and specific obstacles that restrict it. The work of Black and McGlen, showing a decrease in the traditional participation differences between Canadian men and women, is replicated over an expanded series of six national election studies. The results challenge the suggestion that there has been a decline in difference over time, and there is an attempt to account for this lingering distinction between the genders. Data are presented which indicate that the presence of children in the home has a much more constraining impact upon women's political activity than upon that of men.

We address the question of whether class bias in the American electorate has increased since 1964. We analyze the Census Bureau's Current Population Survey and the National Election Studies for seven consecutive presidential elections, 1964–88. Our results show that conclusions regarding changes in class bias are sensitive to which measure of socioeconomic class is used—income, education, or occupation. We argue that income is the appropriate measure since government policies that discriminate based on socioeconomic class are most likely to do so based on income and there are measurement problems associated with using either education or occupation over time. Our analysis shows that there has been almost no change in class bias in the electorate since 1964.

Abstract This article finds, through statistical analysis of the National Election Studies (2004) data, that an increase in intergenerational education levels can positively influence an individual's political interest and political participation. Participatory trends in India are influenced by demographic factors such as caste, class, gender, income, and locality. However, this study finds that education can have a liberating effect from these various socio-economic constraints. It can provide greater access to resources and information, thus helping to increase active political participation.

En este artículo nos preguntamos: ¿Cuál fue la capacidad explicativa de la desigualdad y la pobreza en el ámbito estatal en las elecciones presidenciales de Estados Unido en 2012 y 2016? ¿Cuál fue el balance estatal en las elecciones presidenciales en Estados Unidos? Y exploramos a nivel individual, utilizando la “American National Election Studies Survey”, ¿qué variables nos ayudan a entender el voto en favor de los candidatos presidenciales republicanos en 2012 y 2016? Así, para contestar nuestras preguntas realizamos dos análisis, uno, en el ámbito estatal, y otro, a partir de los votantes, con el fin de explicar los resultados contrastantes de 2012 y 2016.
