Conditionality\nand Coercion: Electoral clientelism in Eastern Europe

Students\ nof political parties draw a sharp theoretical distinction among programma tic\nand clientelistic\nlinkages between candidates and citizens. In this study\, we argue that this\ndistinction is much weaker than assumed and th at candidates rely on a variety\nof clientelistic\nstrategies to signal vo ters various personal attributes and various policy\npositions. We draw on qualitative and survey-based research from several\nEastern European demo cracies to document how candidates use various forms of\nelectoral cliente lism to signal various policy positions and also influence\nelectoral choi ces of voters not targeted by various forms of clientelism. This\nanalytic al framework also allows us to understand the mixes of clientelistic\nstra tegies used by candidates competing in constituencies with different\necon omic and political characteristics.
