Bogota's political culture: patterns of political behavior in 2019 elections
CULTURA POLÍTICA DE LOS BOGOTANOS: PATRONES DEL COMPORTAMIENTO POLÍTICO DE CARA A LAS ELECCIONES DE 2019
Show authors biography
In September 2019, the Media Observatory of the University of La Sabana conducted a study of political culture of the inhabitants of Bogotá. 781 people were interviewed to identify their imaginary about politics, their habits of participation, information and political socialization, and their political values, in the middle of the regional electoral context of October 2019 in the city. It is possible to demonstrate a pattern of behavior that encloses a contradiction between a high level of historical electoral participation and low levels of interest in politics, information on public issues and political interaction with other people, as well as a negative imaginary regarding politics and the reality of the city.
