A pesar de esto cooperaron en varios ámbitos como oposición. Aquí evaluamos si esto incluyó el trabajo legislativo. Aplicando la teoría de principales en competencia a la adscripción partidista y de coalición que pudieran tener los diputados en Chile, analizamos la cohesión legislativa en la autoría de los 1284 proyectos de ley presentados durante ese periodo en la Cámara de Diputados. Si bien formaron un pacto electoral, la Concertación y el PC no se comportaron como pacto político en patrocinio de proyectos de ley (mociones). Aunque el PC está más cerca de la Concertación que de otros partidos, hay más distancia entre ese partido y los de la Concertación que al interior de esa coalición. También hay más distancia entre el PC y el Partido Demócrata Cristiano (PDC) que entre este y los partidos de derecha.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract Though it first won seats in the Chilean Congress in 2009 thanks to an electoral pact with the center-left Concertación, the Partido Comunista (PC) was not formally a member of the coalition in the 2010-2013 legislative period. As part of the opposition, there were instances of cooperation between the Concertación and the PC. We assess if that cooperation was also present in the legislative behavior. Applying the theory of competing principals to the party and coalition affiliation that Chilean legislators might have, we analyze the 1284 legislative bills introduced in the Chamber of Deputies in the period. Though they formed an electoral coalition, the Con-certación and PC did not behave as a political coalition in terms of bill sponsorship. Though the PC is closer to the Concertación than to other parties, there is greater distance between the PC and Concertación parties than within the Concertación. There is also greater distance between the PC and the Partido Demócrata Cristiano (PDC) than between the PDC and rightwing parties.]]></p></abstract>
