1)Programmatic linkage

Dominated in democratic competition


Can structure programmatic linkages with voters
Austria,Belgium,Italy,France,Germany?

2) Clientelist linkage

Involves 2 different circuits of exchange :

Resource rich but vote poor (where we have the politicians


with money in exchange for material favors)
Vote rich but resource poor (here we have material
incentives before and after elections in exchange for
surrending their vote
Clientelist linkage involves reciprocity and voluntarism but also
exploitation and domination

Brazil,Turkey,Russia,Ukraine,China,Mexico-Venezuela?

Differences between 1 and 2:


Clientelistic politics is personalist and programmatic politics not
Clientelist politics undercuts democratic accountability and
programmatic politics creates it
Clientelist politics establishes very tight bonds of accountability and
responsiveness
3)Charismatic linkage

Charismatic politicians-they tend to promise all things to all people


to maintain maximum personal discretion over the strategy of their
party vehicle
Charisma is a quality of personal authority that is difficult to sustain
in a party or movement says WEBER in 1978
