1. Objetivos
2. Justificativa
O curso oferecerá uma revisão da literatura recente acerca da participação política e do voto
obrigatório, um tema central para o Campo da Ciência Política. Esse tema pode ser considerado
um objeto privilegiado de reflexão teórica para o campo, visto que tem recebido a atenção de
uma soma significativa de trabalhos contemporâneos. Não se verificam consensos de ordem
normativa, como também sobre os efeitos empíricos oriundos do estabelecimento e da
manutenção de regras sobre a obrigatoriedade (ou não) do voto. Desta forma, o curso
contribuirá para o treinamento básico dos alunos do programa de mestrado e doutorado do
Departamento de Ciência Política e demais interessados.
