Abstract
RODRIGUEZ PICO, Clara Rocío and GARCIA GARCIA, Diva Marcela. THE 2015 COLOMBIAN ELECTIONS: POLITICAL PARTIES AND CANDIDATE SELECTION AT THE SUBNATIONAL LEVEL. anal.polit. [online]. 2016, vol.29, n.88, pp.3-27. ISSN 0121-4705. https://doi.org/10.15446/anpol.v29n88.63515.
Given the complexity of subnational political dynamics, studies dealing with political party candidate selection at the local and regional levels of Colombian territorial organization have favored a methodological approach focused on case studies dealing with various territorial entities, political parties and the offices (primarily single district) in play. Using the subnational elections of October 2015 as a reference, this article proposes a comprehensive approach which, while having a primarily qualitative emphasis, encompasses all participating political parties and movements making it possible in each instance to establish the relationship between the electoral results and the candidate selection processes utilized.
