LUGO NERIA, Bernabé. Participation in Consultations, Social Contracts and Participatory Budgets in Mexico, 2020. Rev. mex. opinión pública [online]. 2022, n.33, pp.157-167.  Epub 31-Out-2022. ISSN 2448-4911.  https://doi.org/10.22201/fcpys.24484911e.2022.33.80426.

This article empirically analyzes the factors that determine citizen involvement in institutional mechanisms. To that end, it estimates a logit model whose dependent variable is citizen participation in at least one of these three mechanisms: social comptroller, participatory budget and citizen consultation. The explanatory variables that incorporated are: the citizen’s confidence in public bureaucracies, their participation in elections and in the community, their disagreement with participatory governments, their satisfaction with democracy and their preferred type of government (democratic or authoritarian). The main conclusion is that trust towards public servants/ officials continues to be an important element that encourages the participation of individuals.
