Para estos fines, se utiliza una encuesta nacional realizada por el Instituto Federal Electoral y la Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana-Azcapotzalco en 2004. Las hipótesis de trabajo son que el universo de simpatizantes partidistas se ha reducido drásticamente a partir de 2000 y que los clivajes sociales y culturales de la época de la democratización siguen explicando la diversidad partidista.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract: The purpose of this essay is to analyze the social foundations of the three principal political parties in Mexico after the 2000 election, by taking into account variables such as the personal income, education, the level of political information of citizenship, the perceptions towards the presidency of Vicente Fox and the position concerning democracy, among others. For this revision, it is used a national survey sponsored by IFE and UAM-A in 2004. The basic assumptions are as follow: the universe of partisan supporters has decreased dramatically after the year 2000, and that the social and cultural cleavages during the democratization period still explain the partisan diversity.]]></p></abstract>
