- Title
Eleições na Monarquia Constitucional: governos, partidos e opinião pública (1852-1910).
- Authors
Cardoso Leal, Manuel M.
- Abstract
The article questions the widespread idea that in the Constitutional Monarchy governments always won elections, finding that this was only happens with large party governments. Parties were therefore relevant in electoral acts, as well as bipartisanship was influenced by the electoral system. Public opinion was also relevant, resulting in government defeats in big cities. Between 1852 and 1890, consensus reforms prevailed to broaden voter participation, while after 1890 dictatorial reforms increase the pressure of governments on voters regarding the growing republican implantation.
